It is located between David Bagares gata and Tunnelgatan and turned out to be a difficult task for the engineers back in 1884. Two years later it was ready to welcome the Stockholmers. A classic Instagram spot in Stockholm.

MonteliusvägenA 500-meter long (quarter mile) walking path with a magnificent view of Lake Mälaren, City Hall, and Riddarholmen, especially at sunrise and sunset. The path is lined with charming houses on one side and a beautiful view on the other. There is, of course, a safety rail on the path, but be careful in the wintertime when parts of the path might be a bit slippery.

BrandstationenBrandstationen (The Fire Station) focuses on furnishings and antiques, in contrast to the other boutiques that are part of the Herr Judit company. Even here, the concept of vintage and second hand has a high level of quality. All of the items and jewelry are carefully selected with a trendy and style-conscious target group in mind. The store was formerly in a fire station, which is the reason for the name.
