Stockholm, Sweden’s capital, is built on 14 connected islands. Bridges and waterways lace the city and in summer, with daylight lasting till well past 10:30pm, the streets remain lively with strolling families, couples and students.

A good place to start your visit is in Gamla Stan, the Old Town, whose narrow, winding streets date to the 13th century. On a walk, the aroma of grilled waffles pulls you into an eatery for a snack. Along with cafes, boutiques and art galleries line the cobblestone lanes.
