		Stockholm is build on 14 islands so you never are far from water and boats.
  
		 
  
		The city has a lots of interesting sights and many  
		of them are best visited by using the hop-on-hop-off boats.
  
		Or you can take one of the many guided harbor tours and admire the  
		historic waterfront buildings.
  
		 
  
		The Old Town 
Gamla Stan is best seen on foot. Here you find the Parliament House, the Royal  
		Palace, the Nobel Museum and the 
Riddarholmen Church from the 13th century where the Swedish monarchs were buried. 
 
  
		Of course you  
		will find many eateries here so it is a great place to have dinner.
  
		 
  
		A bit outside Stockholm's city center you can ride  
		the 
SkyView on the Ericsson Globe. A nice experience but we were a bit disappointed by the view.
