Book The Monocle Travel Guide, Stockholm

Stockholm has a world-leading design scene, illustrated book palaces and an enviable pier on the waters of an idyllic archipelago - so to say that it is a city that is easy to fall in love with sounds a little trite. But it's more than just looks that beautify this place (even if a dedicated Beauty Board oversees architectural developments). There are also a number of new restaurants that have brought variety to a once one-dimensional dining scene. In the hospitality industry, too, recent openings have overshadowed the sober options, while stores are brimming with Swedish-made goods. Join our editors for a tour of their best finds and find out what to do in Sweden's eminently stunning capital.

The Monocle Travel Guide series reveals our favorite places in each city we cover, from the ideal route for a morning jog to the best independent retail spots. Full of surprises and quirks, they also feature in-depth pages of design and architecture, neighborhood walks to escape the crowds, and our favorite places to eat for everything, whether it's tasty fast food or something truly celebratory.
