WHAT DO WE EXPECT IN SCANDINAVIA?

• CULTURE: Copenhagen, Oslo, & Stockholm are Scandinavia’s great capital cities in all ways economic, cultural and political. The governments and royal families are headquartered in the capital cities of Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. Each city’s commercial center celebrates the best of its national and regional products. Their museums collect and display their individual Scandinavian histories. Their shops display the best of Scandinavian style. Their theatres showcase the world’s finest drama, opera, classical and pop music. Anchoring it all are the beloved city parks devoted to each country’s passion for lifestyle, history, art, and nature: Tivoli, Copenhagen’s beloved amusement park; Vigeland, Oslo’s remarkable sculpture garden; and Skansen, Stockholm’s living open-air museum. 

• LIFESTYLE: Annually ranked at the top of quality of life, happiness, and safety lists, Scandinavia is known for its preference for low-pressure, informal, cozy lifestyles. Hygge is the relaxed attitude toward life practiced in Denmark. Koselig is the Norwegian equivalent. And the Swedish fika coffee break lets busy Stockholmers enjoy some stress-free social time each day. Joining in the enjoyment life’s simple pleasures will help you get a positive sense of Scandinavia’s well-being practices.

• STYLE: Copenhagen, Oslo, and Stockholm are centers of clean (often minimalist) Scandinavian design & manufacturing, especially in furniture and interior furnishings.

• FOOD: Scandinavia is a prime foody destination from street food to Michelin-starred world-class restaurants featuring Nordic cuisine.
