City in Sweden

Gothenburg

3 things to see

Gothenburg is Sweden’s second city with a thriving food scene and a free-to-walk southern archipelago reachable by cheap public ferries on the city transit pass. Strolling the Haga district, the canals, and the leafy Slottsskogen park costs nothing, and prices run slightly below Stockholm. Visiting outside peak summer keeps accommodation cheaper while the long Nordic daylight holds.
