Skansen, located in Stockholm since 1891, is a captivating open-air museum that beautifully brings Swedish history to life. As you stroll through its grounds, you'll encounter traditional houses and employees dressed in period attire, offering a window into the past. Skansen is particularly enchanting during December, when the Christmas markets fill the air with festive cheer. With engaging activities including glassblowing and pottery, there's something for everyone to enjoy. The well-maintained enclosures for animals ensure they're comfortable and respected. Combining cultural richness with Stockholm's picturesque scenery, Skansen offers a delightful escape for both young ones and adults, earning its reputation as a top-rated Scandinavian attraction.

Posto meraviglioso
Varcare la soglia di Skansen vuol dire entrare in un'altra realtà. Un posto magico per gli animali che sono presenti, tra cui i lemuri, che è possibile osservare davvero da vicino, senza un vetro di protezione o dietro una grata. Un posto fermo nel tempo, dove la vita della Svezia dal Trecento a metà Novecento è rappresentata in maniera magistrale, che trasporta totalmente il visitatore indietro negli anni. Il posto è, inoltre, estremamente rilassante. Consigli pratici: l'ho visitato in mattinata di sabato, non ho fatto fila né per fare il biglietto e né per entrare (sono andata poco dopo l'orario di apertura); l'ingresso all'acquario prevede un biglietto a parte (160 corone per gli adulti); il tempo di visita è di 4-5 ore se lo si vuole vedere tutto e con calma. All'interno ci sono diversi servizi igienici e posti dove mangiare.
