Haga

As the city's oldest ‘suburb,’ Haga stands as a small town in its own right, offering a nostalgic and enchanting experience for visitors. Strolling through Haga's narrow, cobbled streets evokes a sense of time travel, transporting you back at least a hundred years. Its traditional wooden buildings house a plethora of cosy cafés, pubs, and quaint shops, where you can peruse books, crafts, and locally-made knitwear. Haga is also home to the magnificent 17th-century fortress Skansen Kronan, which offers panoramic views of the city.

Do & See

Nature is just around the corner in Gothenburg, and distances are short, making it easy to combine bustling city activities with tranquil moments in the archipelago. How about a shopping spree, a visit to a museum or a morning at the large amusement park in Scandinavia, followed by a swim in the sea on the very same day?
