Christmas in Stockholm
Strolling along the narrow cobblestone streets of Gamla Stan (the Old Town) in Stockholm, the snow crunching and creaking beneath your feet, you are part of a scene from Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol” – the church bells ring out and the streets and alleyways open into squares playing host to centuries-old Xmas markets.
Stay in Lapland
Lapland is the land of the Sami, the indigenous people of the area whose thriving, dynamic and unique culture is enshrined in the UNESCO World Heritage site of Laponia. Swedish Lapland is a heart-stoppingly beautiful and rugged natural wilderness that remains untouched by man’s activities. Perhaps labouring the point – this makes Swedish Lapland a spectacularly special place that has to be seen to be believed.
