Duration: 2 hours

Location: Djurgarden

The Vasa Museum is one of the most visited museums in Stockholm. Its main attraction is the boat home after its structure. A Viking ship about 69 meters long and is entirely in the museum. The Vasa is a ship that the king Gustavus Adolphus ordered to fight their enemies Danes. The Swedes and the Danes have been at war for most of history. The ship sank on the same day it opened, more than three centuries ago and remains almost intact after recovery.

In the Vasa you can visit all the parts on the boat: interior design, history... but do not go with the idea of being able to board the same as it is closed to the public. It also highlights the external structure of the museum, as can see, also has boat-shaped. The tickets are extra for all the world, except for minors. I leave its website http://vasamuseet.se/en/
