Sweden is a beautiful country in the north of Europe. Full of history, you'll find castles and thousands of old relics such as rune stones, burial sites, and old fortresses. All this, but even so Sweden isn't as full of tourists as the rest of Western Europe, mainly because as like the rest of Scandinavia, prices are much higher.
If you want to travel to sweden and want a guide to follow, I recommend the books above. The first one is about Sweden and its many cities to visit and the second one is about Stockholm and a travel map, very usefull!
Local Language: Swedish - But many Swedes have an excellent command of English, so you shouldn't have any difficulty.
Costs: Sweden is expensive. Budget $100 per day.
Sweden is a great country to travel in, with so many historical and interesting sites to see it's almost overwhelming. Again, literally thousands of fortresses, and other viking relics are scattered around the country.
Stockholm is one of Europe's most beautiful cities, with many rivers and small islands, in addition to museums and monuments. You'll also find palaces of the Swedish royal family here.
The nature and abundance of lakes, and the northern feel are much like Canada. In the summer you can head to the northern extreme of Sweden and experience 24 hour sunlight, and in the winter the opposite.
Sweden is also one of the safest country's to travel in. The chances of you experiencing any crime or hassle is extreme low!
I'm living in Sweden for 12 years and have seen big changes ever since I first came here. The roads are smoother and buildings, economy, and lifestyle in Sweden has always got better.
