room, flower-flanked terrace and grassy seating out back; the pizzas are piled high and
tasty.
GOTLAND
0498
Gorgeous Gotland has much to brag about: a Unesco-lauded capital, truffle-sprinkled
woods, A-list dining hot spots, talented artisans and more hours of sunshine than anywhere
else in Sweden. It's also one of the country's richest historical regions, with around 100
medieval churches and countless prehistoric sites.
The island lies nearly halfway between Sweden and Latvia, in the middle of the Baltic
Sea, roughly equidistant from the mainland ports of Nynäshamn and Oskarshamn. Just off
its northeast tip lies the island of Fårö, most famous as the home of Sweden's directing
great, the late Ingmar Bergman. The island national park of Gotska Sandön lies 38km fur-
ther north, while the petite islets of Stora Karlsö and Lilla Karlsö sit just off the western
coast.
Information on the island abounds; both

good places to start.
