Malmö is the largest city in Sweden’s Skåne region, located in the south of the country on the shores of the Öresund Strait.
It is a vibrant and cosmopolitan port city with a rich cultural heritage. Walk the lively cobbled streets of the old town, where you’ll find a variety of cafes, restaurants, and galleries. Relax in one of the many parks and enjoy the city’s famous Swedish Fika (coffee and pastries). Visit the iconic Turning Torso skyscraper – it’s the tallest building in Scandinavia. Explore the city’s beautiful waterfront with a boat tour, or take a day trip to the nearby Øresund Bridge connecting Sweden to Denmark. Malmö is a great destination for food lovers, with plenty of restaurants serving up traditional Swedish dishes alongside an array of international cuisines.
There’s also a lively nightlife scene, and Malmö is well known for its annual music and arts festival, Malmöfestivalen. The city is also a convenient base for exploring the rest of southern Sweden, and is just a short train ride from Copenhagen in Denmark.
