Crowned as a UNESCO Heritage Site, Visby exemplifies everything that is beautiful in Scandinavia; gloriously verdant scenery graces much of the landscape, and in the more urban areas, a myriad of mesmerising towers, spires and cottages create a wave of architecture that is unrivalled across much of Europe. The Old Town itself can often a resemble a medieval city; wander along the winding cobblestone streets, leading to a host of cafes and restaurants that offer classic Swedish cuisine and refreshing hot beverages, whilst admiring the imposing edifices and unique structures and designs. For those that really get into the medieval spirit, a whole week is dedicated to roleplay, where the town is drenched in queen, king and knights costumes feasting on a tasty banquet or dancing and drinking the evening away. When an entire town is as compactly covered in beautiful buildings, it can be hard to determine which landmark should top the itinerary, however, of all the incredible architecture, Saint Maria Cathedral is a truly magnificent spectacle. After visiting the cathedral, Botaniska Tradgarden is a rejuvenating area of beautiful forestry and Gotlands Museum offers a fascinating insight into the history of the island.
The town is compact and can be covered almost entirely by foot.
A quiet town on the coast of Sweden, Oskarshamn relies heavily on its naturally inviting landscape to attract tourism. The picturesque streets are lined with colourful houses and cobblestones, creating a postcard picture image. The most aesthetically pleasing area of the town is around the harbour; the docks are surrounded by cafes, pubs and restaurants that offer spectacular views of the marina. Boat tours are on offer around the harbour, giving tourists the chance to witness the beautiful scenery whilst basking in the sea breeze. Away from the harbour, there are plenty of attractions scattered around the city, most notably the specialist museums. Immerse yourself in the history and culture surrounding the region by visiting the Doderhultarmuseet Museum and the Sjofartsmuseet Museum which are generally regarded as the standout landmarks in Oskarshamn. After a day seeing the sights, head to the abundance of restaurants to sample the delicious local cuisine, with sea food typically served as the day’s special.
The town of Oskarshamn is so small that the major sights can be reached via foot. Alternatively, there are taxis readily available throughout the town.
