Royal Palace, Stockholm
The Royal Palace, located across the harbour from the Grand Hôtel, have many different tours each day and is open to the public year round. The guided tours are available in several languages. Entrance tickets are sold at all entrances to the Royal Palace during regular opening hours, or online. The Royal Palace is actually the “new” palace which replaced the old one which was destroyed in a major fire in 1697. It is also the official residence of His Majesty the King of Sweden, even though he actually lives in another palace, Drottningholm. Very popular destination for tourists with its incredible heritage.
The changing of the guards which takes place on the inner court yard at 12.15 every day, except Sundays when it is at 13.15, is nice to see and it is free of charge. This is very spectacular and it is a 'must see' if you're visiting the palace.
