Stockholm

😍😍😍
Slussenområdet (the Sluice area) is an area of central Stockholm, on the Söderström river connecting Södermalm and Gamla stan. The area is named after the locks between Lake Mälaren and the Baltic Sea. Called Karl Johanslussen, the locks themselves allow passage between these two bodies of water (of different levels). Slussen also refers to the cloverleaf interchange and associated pedestrian passages and walkways created in 1935. The Slussen metro station is a hub of public transport in Stockholm, serving the red and green lines of the Stockholm Metro, with an adjoining bus terminal and Saltsjöbanan commuter rail station serving the eastern parts of Stockholm and its surroundings. Djurgårdsfärjan departs adjacently. It is unclear exactly when the channel at Slussen was created, but in the centuries up to the 17th century the differences in level between the Lake Mälaren with the Baltic Sea made it increasingly difficult to pass through the Söderström channel. The first lock was built here in 1642, Queen Christina's Lock. By the early 1700s the lock proved too small and in 1751 the Christopher Polhem Lock was completed. In 1850 an even larger lock was completed, the Nils Ericson lock. - Wikipedia
Fjällgatan (Mountain street) is is located on Stigberget between Erstagatan and Renstiernas street at Katarinavägen. The street is 27.8 meters above Saltsjön (Salt Lake). The street is famous for the beautiful view of Saltsjön, and it also has great views of Stockholm's most central districts.
I live in Stockholm and think that Stockholm is one of the world´s most beautiful cities. This is taken while waiting for a bus to take me to my client. #lifeatExpedia
