Sodermanland Lan lies in the middle of Sweden, just south of Stockholm
between Lake Malaren and the Baltic. The landscape of Sondermanland varies a
great deal from area to area. It is a region rich in water with several rivers
and more than a thousand lakes. A coast enhanced by a spectacular archipelago, a
paradise for adventurers.
The capital of Sweden, Stockholm, a major part of which is in this region
definitely should be visited as the city is known The Beauty on Water. Stockholm
is like no other capital in the world, built on fourteen islands rising
gracefully from the water. Its waterfront is alive with boats from ferries to
shuttle you around the city to sailboats and yachts that cruise out into the
vast archipelago stretching into the Baltic. The area offers a fascinating
insight into Swedish culture and history with rock carvings, rune stones,
castles and manors. The city's architecture is unbelievably beautiful and
cultural life of exceptional vitality and energy waits to be discovered here.
The world known book 'The wonderful adventures of Nils Holgersson' gives
probably one of the most successful attempts to describe Sondermanland as 'The
beautiful garden of delights'.
