GOTHENBURG

The second largest city in Sweden

 

It is just three hours away by train from Karlstad. You can find relatively cheap tickets if you book them long ahead.

If you are a exchange student during Spring you should absolutely visit Liseberg – an amusement park located in the middle of the city.

This is the largest and most visited amusement park in Scandinavia.

Small cozy coffee shops and beautiful and big gardens!
