Sightseeing
Long sea side street just nearby. Has great views of architecture and nature, such as Karlbergs slott (Kalrbergs castle). The water (looks like a river) is actually "Karlbergssjön" (lake Karlberg) and over it you see "Klarabergsleden", which is part of "Vasastaden". The two city parts are completely divided by water, but yet only 1 metro stop or a 5 minute walk over "Sankt eriksbron" (Sankt eriks bridge). Travelling by boat on this "water passage" would essentially take you to lake "mälaren" on the left hand side, and Stockholm archipelago which eventually becomes "Östersjön" (baltic sea) to the right. Lake "Mälaren" was once a part of the baltic sea. The two were divided around year 1000.

Systembolaget is the only store that is allowed to sell beverages containing alcohol. The only exception is 3,5% beer which is found in any shop that sells food, normally. On the up side, Systembolaget is well sorted and has educated staff. Cheap wines are not cheap at systembolaget, but on the other hand, expensive bottles are not that expensive. This is an effect of sweden's alcohol tax system which basically taxes per bottle, instead of quantity. Generally, alcohol is expensive in Sweden, and this is the only place to get it.
