Opera House - Stockholm - Sweden
The art of opera first made its appearance in Sweden at the beginning of the 18th century. The first performances were given by visiting theatre companies from abroad, and not until the early 1770s did any truly Swedish opera emerge. In 1771 King Gustaf III dismissed the French opera group that had for some decades been performing at the Bollhuset on the hill by the Royal Castle in Stockholm and founded a Swedish opera company instead. All opera was to be sung in Swedish. By ""importing"" Italian and German composers like Francesco Uttini, Joseph Martin Kraus, Johann Gottlieb Naumann and Abb? Vogler and getting them to compose operas to texts by Swedish poets, the King laid the foundations for a Swedish opera art. Gustavian opera stands out as a concept all of its own in the musical history of Sweden. During Gustaf's reign many great works were written, such as Naumann's Gustaf Wasa to a libretto by Johan Henrik Kellgren (following a concept by Gustaf III himself) and Kraus's Aeneas in Carthage, also to a text by Kellgren.

River - Stockholm - Sweden
Stockholm is like no other capital in the world. Built on fourteen islands, it rises gracefully from water so clean that you can go swimming or fishing in the very heart of the city. 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 that stretches into the Baltic Sea. Of course getting around doesn't require a boat-you can walk, bike, drive or take advantage of the city's impeccable mass-transit system.

Skansen was founded in 1891 by Arthur Hazelius (1833-1901) for the purpose of showing how people had lived and worked in different parts of Sweden in times gone by. Over the years about 150 historic buildings have been moved here from nearly every part of Sweden. Most of them date from the 18th and 19th centuries. Visitors to the houses and farmsteads are met by hosts and hostesses in period costume. They often demonstrate domestic occupations, such as weaving and spinning.
