Gothenburg travel guide

Gothenburg is the second largest city in Sweden and considered by many Swedes to be the nicest city in the country. Located on the river Gota Alv on the West coast of Sweden, Gothenburg is the kind of city that embraces all of the needs of its visitors whilst still putting its resident’s needs to the fore.
Gothenburg plays host to the largest harbour in Scandinavia which was once home to the Swedish East India Company and a source of much wealth to the city. The city of Gothenburg now plays the part of the largest University City in Sweden and this is reflected in the lively atmosphere and abundance of museums.
Gothenburg offers a whole host of attractions for visitors both young and old such as the Liseberg amusement park, the largest in Scandinavia and the newly built Opera house, all reachable by riding on the wonderful city Tram system.
For visitors looking for more tranquillity Gothenburg is the proud owner of what is considered by many to be the finest Botanical gardens in all of Europe.
