Stroll through Skansen. The late July evening is perfect for wandering the grounds as the light begins to soften. It is a long walk from the gallery, so start here to make the most of the daylight.
21:43
Head to Solliden for a drink or a light bite. This restaurant on Skansen offers an astounding view of the inner harbour, positioning you perfectly for the sunset. The classical smörgåsbord is served in July, making it a great spot to watch the sun dip toward the NW.
22:03
Walk over to Rosendal Gardens. As darkness falls, the historic free-entrance garden offers a peaceful, atmospheric space to unwind. It is worth a visit for travellers not in a hurry, and the short walk from Skansen makes it easy to transition from the harbour view.
22:33
End the evening at Tyrol. Located on Gröna Lund, this restaurant provides a lively spot for dinner after the sun has set. The area is vibrant in the summer months, fitting the theme of an evening out.
Local tip
The walk between Skansen and Rosendal Gardens is short but covers some distance. Wear comfortable shoes. Check the route for bus 67 if you need to return to the Thiel Gallery after dinner.
