Food Scene
One of the best places in Old Town. Small, French cousine, good wine, cosy. May need to book a table in advance, there are not that many tables.

Nice walk, around these two little islands (Skeppsholmen and Kastellholmen) and if you have been to Moderna Museet (MOMA) this is a good alternative to the often crowded and noisy restaurant at the museum. Good food, quiet and just a pleasant place to hang out. And nobody knows about it. Well, now you do.

Sightseeing
Best preserved disaster of the 17th century. The crown-jewel of the Swedish navy sank on its maiden voyage in 1628 and was preserved in its entirety and put in a very large house. Check it out. They did a good job of presenting it too.

Riddarholm Church
Nice for a walk.
Very nice walk. To do both Skeppsholmen and Kastellholmen (the smaller of the islands) takes about 50 min if you follow the shoreline. Recommended.

Parks & Nature
Take the ferry across the street and go for a lovely walk on the shoreside of Djurgården. There are some nice cafes and some of the citys most loved tourist attractions are there: Wasa-museum (17th century war ship that sank, was preserved and put in a museum), Skansen (outdoors museum and zoo), Prins Eugens Waldemarsudde (the home of the much loved "Prince of art" now a museum and gallery. They also have a cafe in the former kitchen), Thielska Galleriet (lovely museum of art with a cafe), Nordiska Museet (museum of local history and traditions), Gröna Lund (amusement park). Personally I like to walk there.

Lovely place for a walk or picknick. Also nearby is the house of butterflies, witch is a greenhouse full of butterflies. Weird and interesting experience.

If you want to check out well designed and stylish clothes, both men and women. Medium range prices. This is a brand that's been around for a while and has become the favorite among fashion designers due to their low-key, classic, yet very personal design. Check it out.

Drinks & Nightlife
This a bar with a view. They are very good at mixing drinks too. They also have a very popular restaurant. Personally I don't think it's worth the money. Better option is to just go for the bar. It's a classy place but snobbish.

If you feel like having an excursion, this might be the thing. It's a spectacularly designed place. I love how they integrated the building with the surrounding nature. Also you can take a short walk down to the seashore on the premises.
