  Being older than 750 years, Stockholm today is a modern, technologically-advanced, liberal and ethnically diverse city. Many visitors are impressed by the beauty of the city on the fourteen islands and enjoy the relaxed and amiable atmosphere.

  Stockholm's many sights enclose the Old Town (Gamla Stan), the Royal Palace, the much-visited maritime Vasa Museum, Berzelii Park, the Royal Swedish Opera, the Djurgården peninsula and the ABBA Museum.
