3 WEEKS
You can cover a lot of the southern part of Sweden in three weeks, including two of the
most dynamic urban centres in Scandinavia - Malmö and Göteborg - as well as some gor-
geous coastline and fishing villages.
Start your journey in
Stockholm
. The wonderful capital city will hold your attention for
as many days as you can devote to it. When it's time to move on, head toward dynamic
Göteborg
, and its surrounding coastline, whose charms include pretty fishing villages and
spectacular, otherworldly light. Make your way along the coast, jagging north to enjoy the
eye candy in upscale
Marstrand
, then edging south to dodge mopeds in beachy
Brännö
.
Stop in at
Varberg
and see the preserved body of Bocksten Man displayed in its medi-
eval fortress. Continue south to
Lund
, Sweden's second-oldest town, with a striking
cathedral and the great cafe culture that goes along with a large student population. Just
south of here is
Malmö
, a diverse and lively city that sometimes feels more a part of
neighbouring Denmark - no surprise, really, as Copenhagen is only a bridge away.
