At some point, and to the great dismay of your bohemian culture-worker friends who live on Södermalm, you'll have to spend some time exploring Östermalm, the fancy part of town, home to Sweden's brat pack, small dogs in leather handbags, and furs. Still, the upper class undeniably has some of the best parks and structures, both Jugendstil and Functionalist, or funkis as they say in Sweden. So, take a nice little walk from our apartment via Humlegården to Tessinparken. I'd suggest approximately this route. Humlegården is also home to the Royal Library, which is worth a quick peek inside. I guess like Tessinparken because its surrounded by funkis houses -- it's a little modernist oasis in a sea of art nouveau. There's also a little summer cafe, Cafe Tessinparken, that serves beer and yummy shrimp sandwiches.
