Stockholm City Hall
Stockholm’s Old Town
‘Galama Stan’, or the Old Town as it’s known in English, is the old heart of Stockholm city. It’s characterised by its cobbled streets, narrow alleyways and Mediaeval buildings. The Old Town is a must-see if you are visiting Stockholm, particularly for history and architecture lovers. There are plenty of cafes, restaurants and gift shops throughout the Old Town. I highly recommend checking out some of the underground bars which are nestled away in dimly-lit caves.

Life in Dubai
