Introducing Sweden
Characterized by verdant forests and contemporary cities, this beautiful northern European country on the Scandinavian Peninsula features spectacular scenery, a rich historical heritage, and a longstanding culture of innovation. Some of Sweden’s most popular destinations include the Lapland region, known for its breathtaking northern lights, as well as multicultural cities like Stockholm and Gothenburg. Stockholm, Sweden’s capital, houses districts that are almost like open-air museums, such as the Gamla Stan neighborhood, as well as palaces and museums. A few of Sweden’s other interesting cities are Malmö, with its modern architecture; Uppsala, home to a profound academic history; and Gotland, home to a vivid medieval texture. In Sweden, you can also discover the regions and artifacts of the Viking era, enjoy tranquility in lush nature parks, or indulge in a hot beverage and a semla (wheat flour bun with almond paste, whipped cream and cardamom) while learning about the fika (coffee break) culture. Fares for flights to Sweden vary depending on the season.
Turkish Airlines operates flights to Sweden, with direct flights to Gothenburg and to the capital city, Stockholm. On average, flights from Istanbul Airport to Sweden last three hours and 45 minutes.
