Stunning view over the water facing the downtown parts including Old town and Djurgården, amusement park Gröna Lund, islands Skeppsholmen and Långholmen and the waterway leading out to the archipelago. Have an icecream further down Fjällgatan and admire the cute old houses.

Many people end up om Old Town´s Västerlånggatan - that runs to the Parliament building. However the eastern counterpart - Österlånggatan - is much less touristic and busy with many nice boutiques with handicraft and art. Also nice restaurants.
