Lake Brunnsviken

I have spent some time around Brunnsviken in Solna during the last week. A beautiful and interesting area. Known for a park called Hagaparken. And the Brunnsviken lake. And the botanical garden Bergianska. Close to the Stockholm University that have a few buildings here. There is also the Swedish Museum of Natural History. And the big cemetery. On a warm Summer day, thousands of people will be out and about here. You can bike around the lake. It is a 13 km ride, and if you stop at all the interesting sites, the ride will probably take all day! The Crown Princess, Victoria, lives in the area with her family. I will try to show you the most interesting places. I took this first bunch of photos at Albano where you can hire a canoe, swim in the lake, go for a walk to the botanical garden, or sunbathe on the rocks. It is a view across the lake back towards Hagastaden, a new living area with a lot of modern architecture, I have shown you photos from there a few times here on the blog.
