For a peaceful day, head to this art museum and sculpture garden. There's a bus you can book, but…read morewe could it cheaper to get an Uber for our party of four. It takes 30 minutes from Stockholm's center city. Admission is free unless you buy a guide. The museum itself is a work of art itself with beautiful lines and textures. Its cafe is good too.

Not to be missed. Unbelievable art museum! Architecture…read moremeets nature in its essence and it truly is! Located 20 km outside of Stockholm nestled in lush green forests encompassed by water. The building itself is astonishing and full of big windows and design. Follow the woodsy trail down the peninsula around the lakes and explore the museum's hidden sculptures and of course the Golden Solar Egg! The restaurant is superb and so is cafe! Chef Anne brings her world famous semlas to life. Stunning place!

Well this place is weird…read more.... I'm a second-hand aficionado. I think it's a blast to scavenge among the riff-raff for true gems. Unfortunately, this is mostly riff-raff. (I cannot speak for the cafe as I did not try it; this is just for the shop.) The staff gave me weird looks when I came in, and eyed my transparent grocery bag either as though they wanted my wrap or they thought I might try to steal something by putting it under my salad... The shop is very strangely organized - or, better put, seemingly not organized at all. And the pricing is super confusing. Most items don't have tags on them. There is a price list, with small text, posted on a wall near the cash register, and the employees tell people to refer to that - after they ask for the price. The price scheme itself was quite strange. All normal-length dresses (not maxis) were 80 kronor. That would have been a decent price for some of them, but definitely not all. Many of the dresses were H&M or other worn-out budget items which would have been 50kr at another shop - but they all went under the 80 umbrella here. Maxis were something like 120kr. The shop is dark and feels a bit weird, and they don't seem selective at all - clothes, books, and furniture all looked pretty worn out. I've heard the cafe is decent, and I am all for helping charity, but I wouldn't go here for second-hand shopping.

Check this out - I enjoyed this museum more than the royal palace as there are English cards in each room with wonderful explanations of how the rooms were used and a glimpse into the family's life. Also it is free! So stay 10 min or hours.

The museum is housed in a historical building in central Stockholm and faces Berzelii Park. The…read morehouse used to belong to the Count and Countess von Hallwyl, but was donated to the state in 1920s. The museum takes you back in time to late 19th century and strikes its visitors with opulence and glitter of the rich aristocratic family. Impressive collection of paintings, furniture, China, and weaponry is displayed in rooms of grand nature decorated in various styles. An window into a private life of aristocracy! It's free to attend, but you would have to pay 70 SEK for a guided tour. Tour will also get you an access into certain rooms closed for general public.

TL;DR: Greatest museum in Stockholm, not suitable for younger kids…read more Amazing place! Next to the Vasa museum, it is a must see! Very very detailed, covering three floors and multiple halls. This museum went over Swedens entire military history with models, visuals, and so much historical artifacts! It was such an amazing place and extremely cheap compared to other museums I've been too! Overall worth every penny! Wouldn't recommend brining young kids to this, as some parts and displays can be a bit graphic, but young adults and adults will love it!

The museum has examples as well that you can touch, feel, or try. The bottom floor has a whole section on old and current war/strategy games which is pretty neat as well.

Staff was very friendly and service minded and the place was pretty busy when we got there. The volume level was pretty high and they had a DJ, but it wasn't to disruptive. Came here to kick off the weekend with some wine, so I didn't really get into the menu that much, only had some lighter dishes. We ordered a couple of tapas, the charcuterie board, salmon, buffalo mozzarella and fried halloumi. Nothing spectacular but everything was nicely presented and tasty. I recommend this place for a date night, dinner with friends or an after work with your colleagues. The price range here is very decent, and very appreciated in a fairly expensive city like Stockholm. Will probably visit again, mainly for the cheap cava!

So it was with a little happy 4-y/o friends kid accompanied by us, 3 adults (at least on paper I…read moreguess) that we arrived to Aquaria to see the shark-feeding mentioned on their homepage at 11:00. In the cashier charged all of us, including the little 4 y/o 440kr in total. Woooow!!! We were a little late so we were told to go in by the back entrance so we could see the shark feeding. I saw myself running through rooms for 5-10mins just to get there in time. But that was wrong, it's a 10s walk to the tank. The little room was packed with kids all excited so we had to squeeze us in close to the glass in order to see something. The feeding was a flop because you had to be in the so called glass tunnel (this looked massive on internet but was only like a meter long) which basically fit a handful of kids so most didn't see much. Few minutes later and it was finished. So what else was here but the 10m long aquarium? Well a few with jellyfishes, some exotic fishes, 2 starfishes and a couple of cute seahorses. Next room was much smaller and had a mini waterfall with some salmons in it and lots of vegetation, not much to see. There was a tropic room which was warm and humid with basically nothing much to see. But at least it looked cool walking in a jungle for 15m's around the room. Then there was 2 small containers with farmed salmons from 1-2 year which swam in a circle. Last it was a frog room (held in a 20 square meters) which was kinda exciting to see if you could find the different frogs. If you stretch it, you could spend 20-25mins and that is basically what you get for 440kr for 3.5ppl. If you have time go down to Copenhagen (actually just outside the airport) and you will see a real aquarium instead of this sad place. Or even go and see any of the free fish zoo-stores in Stockholm and have a nicer time. In the end you can spend the 440kr on a nice lunch with a beer or something which will fill you up and make you happy. Aquarium, it's a joke.

Pretty disappointed. I was really looking forward to this museum and had heard good things…read more Overall it's hot, overcrowded, sprawling with screaming children and the exhibitions are pretty average. It's not a great value for money venue in my opinion. The toilets are rancid (I'll leave it there), poor coffee shop and staff seem both uninterested in the customers and the fish. When you walk in, you enter a rain forest with a cool wooden bridge and fish and water life under you. Great sound effects and a good experience. After that it just goes down hill. Overall, not a great venue or experience. Only worth a visit on a rainy day or with people your not interested in impressing.
