History and Culture as well as Nightlife in Sweden. 

History: Sweden has a very exciting history that dates back to the beginning of the strong Viking Age to the ancient settlements of the Stone Age. The Swedish Vikings were traders and sailors who travelled to most parts of Europe in the course of the 8th-11th century. Sweden has a rich history and, in the Middle Ages, developed into a strong kingdom with numerous castles and churches that are preserved to date. The international presence of the country was further extended in the 17th century, although the country was later to be recognised as a peaceful and neutral nation, especially when the world went to war. Nowadays, tourists have an opportunity to travel to the past to see historic towns, royal palaces, and museums, which bring life to their impressive heritage. 

Culture: The Swedish culture is a peculiar combination of the ancient and contemporary lifestyle. Swedes appreciate equality, nature, and balance in their lives in general as their motto is related to the concept of lagom, which means not too much, not too little. It is its clean design, well-known brands such as IKEA, and good music and fashion scene, which make the country well-known domestically and abroad. Swedes live an outdoors lifestyle all through the year, and they celebrate their local cuisines, including the Swedish meatballs and cinnamon. Fika is one of the traditions in which people take a relaxing break with coffee and friends or colleagues. Although the locals might appear to be reserved, they are welcoming, warm, and respectful. 

Nightlife: The nightlife of Sweden is colourful, trendy, and not very difficult to enjoy, in places like Stockholm, Gothenburg, and Malmö. Most people like things tranquil, and pubs, live music bars, or those noisy nightclubs are all there. Stockholm provides all clubs and liquor bars from trendy to extravagant, whereas Gothenburg is less serious and cooler. Malm is the place where you will find the combination of modern places and seashore lounges. Summer days are long, and there is plenty of energy until the wee hours, and in winter, there are warm interiors that offer a serene environment to have a drink or socialise in the seasonal festivities.
