The Best Part of Gothenburg City Life

haga neighbourhood gothenburg sweden

Every time I visit Gothenburg, whether it is for the day or a longer stay, I always have to stop by Haga. It is undoubtedly my favourite part of the city. Unfortunately everyone else’s too, so be prepared for packed streets during the summer months and on weekends. And it is no wonder why this neighbourhood is so popular with tourists, and locals – it is a highly sought after area to live in. With its adorable 1800s low-rises housing small speciality shops and cinnamon bun cafes along cobblestoned streets, it is a nice break from the more busy life that you’ll find elsewhere in the city, which funny enough is not that far away. Downside to this lovely part of the world is that it is small, with most of it based around one longitudinal street with a couple of side streets only.

    1. Most put Stockholm on the list, and I get why :), but if you have time, you should definitely consider Gothenburg as well.

  1. Gothenburg City with its cobblestone streets and shops looks like a fun place to explore, off season. #TheWeeklyPostcard

  2. I’ve never been to Gethenburg but I think I need to add it to the list. I’ve heard great things about it.

  3. So sad to hear that this lovely street is often overcrowded! 🙁 Thanks for linking up with #TheWeeklyPostcard!

  4. It looks like a cute area. I didn’t have time to make it to Gothenburg on my last trip to Sweden, hope to make on the next. Thanks for sharing on #TheWeeklyPostcard
