It seems that as early as middle school, I knew the city of Mudao and its country, and its name was always associated with the words neutrality and Nobel Prize. When I was preparing to study abroad, I saw many posts about my trip to Stockholm, and I was a little excited to find that this name, which always appeared in history textbooks, was suddenly close to me. In Helsinki, Stockholm is just like a neighboring village, so it is convenient to visit relatives. Although we have no relatives there, why not look at the house? This little idea came into being. Let's not talk about the twists and turns of buying tickets and booking, nor the mistakes of meeting at the dock.
When a group of seven of us stood on the deck of Viking named after pirates and looked at Helsinki, we had already forgotten the hard work of running all the way and our hearts were full of excitement. It was not until the ship set sail that several companions stood at the bow and blew a fierce sea breeze for a long time before they were willing to walk off the deck. When you enter the luxurious cabin, you can hear sweet music. The bar on the 9th floor is surrounded by a dance floor, with orange lights playing above the dance floor, and the stage on the edge of the dance floor sometimes pulls the curtain to reveal a jazz band. Most of the people coming in and out here are elderly people, and their clothes are more formal. Most of the music is cha-cha, tango or waltz. There are several pairs of figures on the dance floor, intoxicated by the music and swaying slowly.
We are too familiar with this scene, which is a film and television drama that we can often shoot in Europe. The music on the eighth floor is more modern. This is a karaoke room and a disco. Some young people order songs one after another, but some old teachers with gray hair show their hearts in front of everyone. Of course, there are songs that don't appeal to me. Aren't Finns very introverted? There seems to be no trace of singing here. There are jingling slot machines in the hut on each floor, and people of different ages can be seen at any time to try their luck. Walking out of the bar, tables and chairs placed by the window provided us with a good chat environment. Watching the sunset in melodious music, on the deep blue sea level, from dazzling brightness to light orange to warmer and more shy orange, I feel a little drunk.
I chatted around the window for two hours with drunkenness and exchanged my feelings and experiences after I came to Finland. Useful information, fresh topics, knowing smiles and wise words pass by us, making the air warm. The next morning, it was foggy outside the window, and we walked with the boat in our dreams. The islands faintly visible outside the window are transpiration in the clouds. Under the cover of clouds, we took to the streets of Staten Island in the old city and seemed to feel a slight rain. The ancient city is gray everywhere. This is your first visit to Sweden. Facing this ancient city, you can't help being at a loss. At first glance, the architectural style of Helsinki is somewhat similar.
Where is the famous palace? Which road leads to the city hall? How to visit these scenic spots in this limited few hours and return to the dock in time? Fortunately, I found a very precious map, which is unique in that the buildings on the map are three-dimensional, and the style and color of each building and even the color and sculpture of the roof can be seen on the map, just like the miniature Stockholm city stands on that map. We went straight to the palace, leaving a scene of laughter along the way. At noon, our enthusiasm touched the sun, and it finally opened the clouds and revealed a smiling face, and the whole city lit up. Most of the buildings in the old city are orange or goose yellow, with the style of Venice, Italy. This is because a king in history liked the urban architectural style of Venice and ordered all the buildings in the old city to be painted with bright colors, thus forming a unified and unique landscape of the whole city.
This also makes the old city a place where many tourists can smell the sunshine. The Swedish Palace, built in the 0/7th century A.D./KLOC, is a small square castle. This is the watchtower in Stockholm, from which you can see the panoramic view of Stockholm. This palace was built in 1690, but in 1697, it was caught in a fire and almost burned down. Later, after a major transformation, it took 65 years to form the present scale. In front of the palace, there are several guards wearing berets and golden button uniforms. They added a landscape to the palace, not momentum. There are several cannons on display in the Little Square on both sides. The thin barrel is in sharp contrast with the cannon wheels with a caliber of nearly one person on both sides, which makes people doubt the use of this pocket gun. The architectural appearance of this palace is baroque and magnificent. Apart from magnificent rooms and royal treasures, Swedes are most proud of the fact that there are as many as 608 rooms in the palace, four more than those in Buckingham Palace in England.
City Hall, across the bridge connecting the new city and the old city, you can see this huge red brick building, which stands on the bank of Meralen Lake and is a symbol of Stockholm. The tower on the right tries to lift three golden crowns to the sky, which is a symbol of close cooperation between Sweden, Norway and Denmark, although they have a long-lasting dispute over who is dominant in the three countries. Today, there are still many products branded with these three crowns. The main building of the city hall is located in a huge arched door corridor, supported by tall columns. The high wall is made of only 80 thousand red bricks, which is extremely simple, but the beauty of bricks makes people feel respected. The city hall has a parliament hall and a huge banquet hall, the blue hall.
The original design idea of the Blue Hall was to cover red bricks with lime and then paint them blue. Later, I didn't expect that the texture and color of red bricks were so beautiful that people felt amazing. The architect temporarily changed his mind and kept the color of the red brick, so the blue hall is actually a red hall, but the colonnade is painted blue. This hall can accommodate 1, 300 guests. After the Nobel Prize is awarded in 65438+February 10 every year, the king and queen will hold a grand banquet for the Nobel Prize winners in the Blue Room. It is said that the menu of that banquet has been discussed since spring, and only the waiter who pours champagne at the banquet has to walk 5 kilometers. What a spectacular scene it will be. I like this quaint old town, and the streets paved with stones still retain the medieval style, which makes people linger. Some alleys are so narrow that only two people can pass sideways, but standing at the entrance of each small street, you can draw a scene; In the small pavilion facing the street, there are several tables and chairs beside the open-air window, which are covered with checked tablecloths, revealing leisure and provoking each of us to sit down and meditate for a while.
The shops on both sides of the street have their own characteristics. The window of the jewelry store reveals the mellow luster of amber. The window of the toy store is simply a fairy tale world. The light in the crystal shop is pure and bright. Those old buildings, old sculptures, old shops, old doors and windows make people feel that maybe behind that door is your old dream. You can relive medieval life when you walk in. But the modern technology and goods in the modern window will make you awake and let you feel the prosperity of this rich modern city.
The central square, the palace and the National Bank, these ancient buildings are decorated with medieval carvings and sculptures. Thinking of the bullet marks on the gate of the National Museum of Finland, and looking at these intact doors and windows and ancient sculptures in front of me, I feel the tranquility as a peaceful city that has not experienced war for more than 200 years. In the central square of the new town, we stopped for a while. During the break, we found dozens of white and black stone piers in the corner of the square. It seems that foreign cities are often decorated and the fence is broken somewhere.
Put these stone piers here temporarily. We soon found ourselves making a subjective mistake: two people stood on the black side and the white side, playing with stones, and the result was a giant chess! Ai Erken, who loves chess, immediately came running with a camera. This is a rare shot. Looking around, like Helsinki, there is a bronze statue in the square, holding a sword and looking into the distance. We don't delve into the origin of this man, we are interested in pigeons standing on his shoulders and overhead.
Birds rudely regard the bronze statue as a resting place, and at the same time give it white excrement, which seems funny or rude, but it is a symbol of peace and tranquility in the city. On the way back, we chatted happily, chatted happily, and everyone chatted happily. We don't want to leave late at night, leaving the happy breath in the cabin, in the air and in our hearts. 7-day fashion tour in Stockholm: Stockholm is a romantic Nordic water city and the heart of Scandinavia.
