Uppsala: Sweden’s Mystical Heart

Located in northern Sweden, Uppsala is a city where history and modern life intertwine, defying the passage of time. The ancient mounds of Gamla Uppsala and the magnificent Uppsala Cathedral carry traces of the past into the present. The Carl Linnaeus Gardens offer another stop where the aesthetic power of nature is palpable.
