Introduction
Sweden is a small nation in a big country - fewer than nine million inhabitants in an area larger than California and nearly as large as France or Spain. It is a modern, sophisticated, internationalized society which is very much part of a globalized world. The simple origins of the Swedes are clearly apparent, however, in our proud but low-key disposition, close contact with our cultural heritage, popular customs and traditions and, not least, intensive love of our magnificent, challenging but lavishly rich Nordic nature.
For the visitor, this means an opportunity to experience an astonishing nature, spiced up with cultural heritage and an open-mindness that ensures you a pleasant stay - no matter whether you visit the plains in the south, the cities, the hidden secrets of the inlands, or the vast mountains in the north!
Top Things to See and Do
So much to say, with so little space... In Sweden there are no limits for what you can do! Play golf, go skiing, enjoy the beaches, visit art museums, go hiking, etc. etc. And do not miss the special Swedish archipelagos in Stockholm and Göteborg - thousand and thousand of islands to cruise around!
People who have more than a day to spend in Stockholm (even in wintertime!) should take a boat out to the islands. Stockholm has an archipelago of 24 000 islands and some wonderful nature, birdlife, etc. You will notice many Swedes own a boat and the archipelago is a busy but beautiful place. You can go for a day trip or an overnight, there are hostels and camping grounds and even some good hotels in some parts of the archipelago. Most of the islands are uninhabited though. You can also go by boat to Finland (0-300 kr) and Estonia.

Other ideas would be to go up to Dalarna (Lake Siljan and around) - lots of forests and traditional stuff and beautiful nature (forest)up there.
If you have only a week or less to spend in Sweden it is probably wise not to go up to the north since it will take you a day to get there and a day to get back unless you fly. If you're a student or under 26 you can fly domestic quite cheaply though and in that case it could make sense. The northern parts are nothing like the southern parts of Sweden - it's a big country and the nature is amazing up there. Of course, if you're a keen hiker you should skip Stockholm and go straight to the north... A domestic ticket from Stockholm to the far north for a person under 26 should be no more than 400-450 SEK one way.
