Stockholm, Sweden
This view is from the island of Skeppshomen of Skansen.
The reddish angled building on the right is a ship museum with a couple
of ships and a submarine outdoors, and a very large, very very impressive,
late era Viking ship from the 1600's. The ship sailed for somewhat
less than one hour and sank- a testament to the engineering that went into
it. It was raised from the seabed intact in the 1950's, carefully
restored, and this museum was built around it.
The building in the center is the Nordic Museum- an impressive looking
building, but not worth the price of admission.
