So I came across this page for Monteliusvägen when a fellow Yelper friend of mine posted photos and…read moreI thought to myself, how did I miss that? Well, besides the fact that we didn't take proper measures to get internet during our stay since we relied on our cousins to do that, all I did was check-in to areas with my spotty internet and didn't think of checking in to the actual town. Well, here I am, five months later with a few shots from some of the most beautiful views I captured during my visit to Stockholm. Monteliusvägen is a gorgeous walking area about a quarter-mile long that shows gorgeous views of historic buildings, the glistening water and gorgeous homes and businesses surrounding the area. We arrived to the country at a good time during the summer, although they are known to have sudden changes in the weather in the middle of the day where it'll begin raining with thunderstorms out of nowhere. This day in particular served us well. One of the pictures was taken from the water because my lovely uncle and cousins gave us a tour around the city with their boat. It was a magical experience and I could not stop taking photos. If you visit Sweden and want to avoid the cold, visit during July (when they celebrate Midsommar) or August...just bring an umbrella.

The park is extremely lush, green, and expansive with many experiences to choose from, whether you are looking to take a long stroll, stretch out on a blanket, eat a good meal with a scenic view, or learn about Swedish history at Skansen. I highly recommend having coffee or lunch at Rosendals Trädgård - a locally operated farm and dining destination centrally located in the park. There is even an option to take your meal and enjoy it in the beautiful apple orchard.

The old prison (which I did not visit today) has been turned into a hostel. Lots of walking paths criss-crossing the park. Some paved. Some hard-packed dirt. A caravan park. Kayak and canoe rentals. Beaches and swimming. Or just enjoy the park itself that allows dogs. [Review 18747 overall - 80 in Sweden - 2270 of 2022.]

And if you are feeling more adventurous, there are canoes and kayaks to rent, and perhaps why not take a swim in a nearby beach.

Different times of year will find him dressed in appropriate clothing for current events or the weather. Knitted scarves are popular as are sunglasses. The statue dates back to 1967 by artist Liss Eriksson and it was originally titled, "The Boy Who Looks at the Moon." Rubbing his head bestows good luck as does leaving a small gift. It's a quick stop. [Review 18699 overall - 34 in Sweden - 2222 of 2022.]
