Malmö

Modern Malmö
Malmö is a city full of surprises with a rich cultural life and beautiful architecture. Until 1658, Malmö belonged to Denmark and it’s not surprising that this third largest city in Sweden, is reminiscent of Copenhagen in both its architecture, spirit and mentality.
Malmö is one of the earliest industrialised Scandinavian cities, but it is also one of the top five of the greenest cities. This multifaceted city offers a set of themed playgrounds and parks, three skateboarding parks, a water park and a range of other attractions for families, couples, young and senior travellers.

Beautiful Malmö
Turning Torso skyscraper
Part of the Western Harbour District is the largest and most impressive 190 m high residential building in Malmö. It’s visible from afar but it's well worth taking a closer look to admire the perfect spiral structure consisting of parts joining at 90 degrees angle from bottom to top.
Take a stroll through the windy alleys of this area, admiring the modern, well-maintained infrastructure and walk the interesting coastline with magnificent panoramic views of the Oresund Bridge.
Lilla Torg
As the most charismatic place in all of Malmö, this square in the heart of the city is the most popular meeting point not only for being a wonderful place for some coffee and food, but also for its architecture and great atmosphere. Some of the most famous nightclubs and bars are also located near Lilla Torg square. Take a stroll to the nearby Gamla Väster district, where you can walk between the small but colourful old houses.
