Top 6 Family Attractions in Djurgården Everyone will Love

One of the best places to entertain the whole family is Gröna Lund Amusement Park. With its many rides like the Twister, Rock Jet and Insane Coaster alongside great snack and dining options, you can easily spend the whole day here. The grounds also often hold events so there's more fun to enjoy for all the family!

If it just so happens that your family are all fans of ABBA, then you are in luck. There is a dedicated museum to the group right next door. You certainly don’t have to be die-hard fans to enjoy a trip through - at the ABBA Museum you can sing along as you browse and then dress up as a 5th ABBA member and 'audition' to join the group! Then head back to the hotel and enjoy a drink on the outdoor terrace, planning your next day's activities!

One attraction we can't get enough of is the Vasa Museum, which is a step back in time to the 17th century. The centerpiece of this stunning museum is the large Swedish warship ‘Vasa’, which remained underwater for over 300 years. For those coming with kids, there are plenty of cool activities and exhibitions to check out too. If your kids are 6 or older, embark on the 'Family Trail' where you can discover together Vasa's history, whilst for those traveling with older kids, walk through the museum, check out the life-sized model of the gun deck and step inside a 17th century diving bell. It is also possible to give sailing the Vasa a try with the help of computers! No matter what age your family, you are going to love the most visited museum in Scandinavia.

Another pretty fancy family favorite is the Nordiska Museum which is Sweden’s largest, covering cultural history with works ranging from the 1600s until now. See what the past was like in this country, learn about old traditions and view extensive art collections. Even if the kids are too young to appreciate art for now, they will still have a great time in the Children’s Playhouse. The playhouse hosts activities such as 'Time Travel Parties' where they can enjoy dressing up and much more besides.

Junibacken is a wonderland for small children filled with fantastic characters, colors, games and storytelling. Let the little ones discover, learn and play in a fantasy land built just for them at Djurgården. Hop aboard the Story Train and make your way through tales of Pippi Longstocking, Alfie Atkins, Mamma Moo and more. Then watch a play at the theater and head to the restaurant and grab a bite to eat.
