In recent years, the country has spent time investing in the public transport system, including their rapidly growing airport. Cheap flights, including options from state-owned airline Swedavia, connect Stockholm with countries such as Denmark, Poland, the UK, and the Netherlands.

There is a lot of history in the city which is lined with museums and beautiful churches. Most of the vibrant architecture on some of the buildings was inspired by the gothic age as well as the baroque age. Other notable attractions are old towns and city centers that have been in existence since the Viking age when Stockholm was a major trading hub because of its proximity to the sea. What started as a fishing village has evolved centuries later and there are over 100 museums within the city that showcase part of the evolution. There are art galleries, opera halls, theatres, and amusement parks as well. A Stockholm Travelcard can also give great discounts into many tourist attractions.
