Gothenburg, Sweden
While the capital city of Stockholm is the main location to begin after arriving in the country, we think you should consider Gothenburg as a side trip.
Sweden’s second biggest city is a mere three hours away from Stockholm by train and has made huge strides as a travel destination.
Gothenburg has become the most friendly and open-minded city worldwide. Locals place their highest value on the planet, socializing, and are the third most liberal city regarding their attitudes towards other people’s lifestyles.
While here, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped back in time in the Haga district. The cobblestone streets and timber houses hark back to a long-lost life. But what has changed is that it’s no longer a dense residential area for the city’s workers.
It’s now mainly known for its upscale restaurants and coffee shops. One thing has remained the same, though. The family-owned chocolatier “Bräutigam’s” has been running its business for 150 years!
We’re confident that if you choose to visit, you’ll also consider this place one of the most friendly cities in the world.
