A walking tour of Sweden’s design capital: MalmöSweden's third largest and southernmost city is a hotspot of activity and attractions for lovers of Scandic design, art and architecture. A wealth of well-preserved late-Gothic buildings surround the city's two 'Old Town' squares, Stortorget and Lilla Torg, giving the city a distinctly medieval feel, while further afield a clutch of ultra-modern marvels, ranging from private and commercial buildings to public spaces, reflect Malmö's positioning as a multicultural city with a focus on the future. Dotted around town you'll find an impressive collection of galleries, bars and cafés bursting with inspiration and some fantastic local boutiques, brimming with obejts d'art for you to take back home.
