Stockholm Parliament - Great Attractions (Stockholm, Sweden)
  • 13 years ago
Take a tour of Stockholm Parliament in Stockholm, Sweden – part of the World’s Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.

Isolated on a man-made island in Stockholm, Sweden, between the town’s center and historic “old town” is the Swedish House of Parliament.

Visitors can walk through the beautifully manicured front lawn and enter the House of Parliament through a gorgeous anteroom.

The structure was built in German New-Baroque style by a prominent architect in the nineteenth century.

To get to the building, visitors can cross either of the two bridges leading to the islet.

Once on the island, pedestrians are free to traverse the pathways and climb the stairways which surround the Parliament building.

Serving as both a destination and a functioning parliamentary meeting house, this site encompasses architectural beauty and Swedish culture.
