Gamla Stan, i.e. Stockholm Old Town presents itself in a particularly colorful way. It is located on 4 islands: Stadsholmen, Riddarholmen, Strömsborg and Helgeandsholmen. This historic district of the capital of the Scandinavian country was founded in 14th century by Birger Jarl, a magnate and outstanding statesman of medieval Sweden. The picture was taken from the building of the town hall.
