What an awesome time here!!! If you are ever in Stockholm this is a must for sure. It may not seem…read morelike much but imagine a zoo and theme park all built into one. Not that you'll find crazy rides but there's entertainment for kids with some rides, plus not to mention the lounging areas, the animals, and so much more. Came here walking from our hotel , you can catch a bus, and it was just beautiful. I highly recommend a visit. This can be an almost all day thing or just come for a few hours like we didn't.

We walked over to Skansen after the Vasa Museum. The weather was quite nice and sunny which was…read moreperfect to enjoy this outdoor museum. After entering we decided to walk the path up to the park instead of buying a ticket for the funicular. It took roughly 10 minutes on a slight incline. Skansen was huge and does take time to go from place to place. Initially we wandered from building to building and many were not staffed or only viewable from the outside. While it was interesting to read the posted signs it wasn't too interesting. At the Oktorp farmstead, we finally found the first staffed location and got to see and learn about dying of yarn. Here we also learned which buildings were staffed and from that point forward gave us a plan of how to tackle Skansen and made the visit much more enjoyable. We had a great conversation about politics in the People's House which was very appropriate and compared it against present day in both our countries. Many parallels. We learned more about typical farm life in the Skane Farmstead while stooping low inside the house and that led to the Delsbo Farmstead. Delsbo was quite the opposite as it was ornately decorated with detailed wall paintings paid for by the well to do family per the staff. I highly encourage anyone visiting to engage with the staff as they were very enthusiastic about sharing their knowledge of the period or activities that went on in that particular farmstead, building, church, etc. We skipped seeing all the animals they kept towards the back of Skansen as well as the aquarium. Overall spent over 2 hours here and likely could've spent more if more buildings were staffed and open. Glad the weather held throughout our visit.

Their staging of exhibitions and curation are world-class. Their cafe and restaurant on their top floor is spectacular, and can satisfy a range of wants from dining to a coffee. Their prices for admission are fair. Plan for 1.5-2 hours for your visit, excluding time in the cafe or dining, and getting to and from the museum. We'd go back. TIP wine and other drinks are available beginning around 18 at the galleries entrance TIP account for walking to and from Slussen (600-750 m), which is the nearest transit

But the Swedes did a phenomenal work art of Sleeping Beauty. The live orchestra, talented dancers, colorful costumes, and elaborate sets all worked together harmoniously to create a wonderful classic ballet...the Carabosse was mesmerizing and seductive! Be careful when buying tickets online for this opera house. I picked out a couple of seats for 330SEK($37) each. They looked decent on the website chart, which unfortunately is not to scale and doesn't fully project the true sharp horseshoe shape of the theater. The seats were still decent, but required turning your head sharply for 3 hours. Fortunately, the show wasn't sold out. After 15 minutes into the show, we snuck over to some better seats that were much central and provided a significantly better view. I guestimate these seats were 500-700+ SEK. Still, I would've been happy with the 330SEK seats, they would've been 50% more in America. Though I'm guessing tax revenue subsidizes the ticket costs, thanks Sweden! If you're into the Arts, go check out a concert, opera, or ballet at this classical & beautiful opera house.

The museum has an impressive permanent collection (pieces by Picasso, Dalí, Duchamp, Matisse, etc.). When we visited last week, I was really blown away by an exhibit made up of works from their permanent collection: "Pink Sails: Swedish Modernism in the Moderna Museet Collection." I wasn't familiar with too many Swedish artists, so it was a pleasure to explore this exhibit and experience art that was new to me! The museum is open late (until 8pm on Tuesdays and Fridays), which was great for us - it let us tag on a visit to the museum at the end of a full day of touristing around Gamla Stan. The museum is gorgeous, very modern, with a great gift shop, cafe, and restaurant. A really beautiful museum and well worth visiting if you're interested in modern and contemporary art.
