Take a walk in The Royal National City Park <\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

The long-awaited spring has finally arrived, and that means that Stockholmers and visitors from all over the world are flocking to Djurg\u00e5rden as soon as they have a spare moment.\u00a0 Perhaps you are one of them? Then here are some spring tips for you.<\/strong><\/p>\n

For many people, life in a big city can start to feel a bit hectic and stressful after spending a long time there, no matter how great the city is. That’s what makes Stockholm, and Djurg\u00e5rden in particular, so unique, as it is home to the world’s first National City Park. It gives people a chance to get away from their hectic everyday lives and find their inner peace.<\/p>\n

In our opinion, one of the best times to visit is right now during spring. As the park is home to over 800 different flowering plants and around 100 species of nesting birds, it gives our visitors the perfect opportunity to experience spring in Scandinavia’s largest city.<\/p>\n

But it’s not just us who think the place is unique, Djurg\u00e5rden has been called “Stockholm’s most beautiful island” and is appreciated by many.<\/p>\n

Here are some tips from us at Royal Djurg\u00e5rden on what not to miss when you visit our lovely island.<\/p>\n

Blockhusudden\u00a0<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

One of the most popular walking routes in Stockholm is along the Djurg\u00e5rdsbrunn canal. If you follow it all the way out, you will eventually reach Blockhusudden and Thielska Galleriet.<\/a> There you can quietly enjoy one of Sweden’s foremost art museums, with a unique collection from the turn of the last century featuring works by Edvard Munch and August Strindberg, among others.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Waldemarsudde<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

At Waldemarsudde we find the Prins Eugen konstmuseum<\/a> where you can experience its fantastic art collection, garden and park. Now during this year’s “Spring Flowers in the Park”, our guests will have the opportunity to join the park’s gardener, Marina Rydberg, who will give a tour of the magnificent garden when it is full of spring flowers such as tulips, daffodils and many different kinds of bulbous plants.<\/p>\n

5 Caf\u00e9s you should not miss\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/h1>\n

Rosendals tr\u00e4dg\u00e5rdskaf\u00e9<\/a> <\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Are you craving for a nice cup of coffee? Then stop by the popular caf\u00e9 in Rosendal’s Garden, one of Stockholm’s absolute favourite places to enjoy a good cup of coffee and some homemade bread and pastries in its botanical garden. Because there’s not much that beats a freshly baked cinnamon bun with loved ones in the spring sunshine while listening to the birds chirping in the background. \u00a0 <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Arthurs Kaf\u00e9 <\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n

At what was until 1938 the central entrance to the open-air museum Skansen, you will now find the newly opened Arturs Kaf\u00e9. The beautiful Hazelius Gate from 1907 has been carefully renovated and transformed into a Viennese caf\u00e9 with a lovely bar and outdoor seating area with an inviting atmosphere that resonates well with the history of the place.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

Bl\u00e5 Porten <\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n

For more than a hundred years, tourists and Stockholmers alike have enjoyed classic dishes and pastries in the beautiful surroundings of Bl\u00e5 Porten. A beloved watering hole on Djurg\u00e5rden since 1916 when restaurateur Agnar Meurling opened the summer restaurant with an Italian-inspired garden. Nowadays, Bl\u00e5 Porten is open all year round and invites you to a unique, historic setting where you can enjoy Swedish home cooking and a fantastic coffee table.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Caf\u00e9 Monika Ahlberg\u00a0<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n

Along Blockhusudden we find Thielska Gallery’s caf\u00e9, privately run by food creator Monika Ahlberg, who is known for her cookbooks and her previous work at Rosendals Tr\u00e4dg\u00e5rd.<\/p>\n

It serves lunches such as soup with freshly baked bread, sandwiches in several varieties, hot smoked salmon with basil potatoes and rum sauce, country potato dish with cumberland sauce and various salads. There is also always a “Special of the Day” which varies. In addition, many different types of homemade pastries are offered.<\/p>\n

It is also possible to have a glass of wine or beer with your meal. During the summer months, you can take your lunch and snacks out into the sculpture park.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Skroten Caf\u00e9 & Skeppshandel\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Skroten Caf\u00e9 & Skeppshandel is located in a small alley at Nya Djurg\u00e5rdsvarvet, right next to Beckholmen and Gr\u00f6na Lund. The caf\u00e9 is neighbours with the glittering Baltic Sea, the old workers’ housing and the creaky jetties.<\/p>\n

What makes the Caf\u00e9 so unique is that they offer a wonderfully rustic atmosphere among ship’s lanterns, tamarinds and lifeboats amidst the sweet smell of tar and sea. We highly recommend stopping by for a tasty and well-prepared lunch, a cup of coffee with freshly baked raspberry pie or perhaps a dinner of a hearty fish stew and a glass of wine on their delicious outdoor terrace.<\/p>\n
