I was with Chris and 2 girls, who are also from Deggendorf and spend a semester abroad in Sweden for 2 days in Gothenburg.
Gothenburg is indeed the second largest city in Sweden. It is located on the west coast of Sweden. The local beach is called the Kattegat and it is unclear whether it belongs to the North Sea, the Baltic Sea or to either of them.
The far southern location as Stockholm, Gothenburg has an ice-free port year-round and is thus very important for the industry and the ferry.
Gothenburg is known for its culture. There are many museums that cost the way in Sweden usually have free entry, especially for young people under 25 years. It's also a special "young" city. Gothenburg is also a lively nightlife known.
There are also many coffee houses that have a long tradition in Gothenburg. In every street and every corner with cafes, which often offer a terrace to sit outside.
Gothenburg is one of several small rivers and canals criss-crossed, all of which drain into the sea. The port has a very impressive natural size. Thus we see from the port to the city center, where the famous Utkiken Tower and the Opera are not going out to sea. On Saturday we
came with the car at about 11 clock. Linköping, it takes about 3 hours. After we checked into the hostel, we went for a little exploring. We had a relatively good location of the hostel and so we first marched through the old quarter
Haga. There are many small streets, small boutiques and cafes. We went to a small hill where we had a lovely view over the city. We visited a few churches, including the cathedral, but looked quite interesting. The Gustavus Adolphus--Torget is probably the center of Gothenburg. Here is the statue of city founder Gustav Adolf and beautiful facades. There is also close to the harbor. In addition to the Utkiken Tower and Opera there are still visible a very large sailing ship that serves as a hotel and museum. In addition, there is still a floating ship museum. They are old warships including, that can be committed.
A landmark is still the Liseberg Park. This is an amusement park. First, we wanted to go there Sunday, but then we decided on the archipelago.
is very impressive, the Fisk Kyrka (fish church). It is the fish market and has its name from its appearance, as the building looks more like a church. There was all that the sea has to offer. I really liked in there. I felt like all times by trying ... Chris and I have then bought a little something and it was very tasty.
night we were eating Thai and then the Kungssportsgatan gone up and down. There you will find numerous pubs, bars and clubs. Sorry However you get here to feel the juices Swedish prices. For a beer (0.4 l) you pay easily pleased by 5 € and more. The next day we
are still climbing up a hill on which stood a church. This was very close to our hostel. We are still in a design museum. Was quite interesting. There are several task Desigergegenstände how to evaluate furniture, decorations and toys from different times. Then we broke
on the archipelago. Before Gothenburg are very many small islands. These are very typical of Sweden, called islets. We went on Sunday with the bus to a ferry and then drove to a greater Island by boat. It was settled for an island in the archipelago very strong. Basically it was a small independent village. However, there were no cars but motorcycles. Otherwise, there are islets
n in every size and shape. Some are uninhabited, some only available on a house. Often, not even plants are on them. In the pictures you can see all possible variants. We went for a walk and then climbed a hill. There we had a wonderful view over a number of islands. Many sailboats were out. The weather was really great all weekend.
evening we then moved back to Linköping. The weekend was really great and I can recommend each Gothenburg.
