Thought Venice was beautiful, until I visited Stockholm.

"Cities by the sea always seem a bit more romantic." After exploring nearly a hundred European cities, I finally found the most beautiful European capital in my heart—Stockholm, Sweden. With its deep blue sea, colorful houses, ancient churches, and docked ships, Stockholm is often praised as the "Venice of the North."
