Hagaparken

Another of Stockholm's lovely green pleasure gardens (and a section of the expansive Royal National Park), Haga Park has a royal pedigree. Begun by King Gustav III – one of his many elaborate visions – it is Sweden's purest version of an "English park." The surrounding area contains three royal palaces, and you'll also find Koppartälten, Gustav III’s Paviljong and Fjärilshuset-Haga Ocean here. Catch buses to Haga at Odenplan or Sergels torg.
