We spent some time with friends in Sweden, who took us on a day trip to Gränna & Visingsö.
Gränna is full of charm! It’s in Småland on the eastern shores of the lake Vättern, about 40 km north of Jönköping. The main strips features traditional Swedish candy stores, with an abundance of troll folklore.
Just a ferry ride away, Visingsö is an island in the southern half of the lake Vättern in Sweden. Visingsö lies 30 kilometres north of the city Jönköping. It’s also home to the Näs Castle, which was the residence for the Swedish monarchy in the 12th and 13th centuries.

love that pic of u with troll, very cute! Great article too. 🙂
Trolls were everywhere 🙂 I loved it!
It is nice you get to explore all these different countries and their cultures, and their differences in landscapes. You will have beautiful memories to treasure.
Lots of great history to explore here! And a lot of great people, too. I am happy to have experienced it! 🙂
That’s like a hidden gem!
It’s three hours south of Stockholm, so I don’t imagine it gets the same amount of tourists!
i love your pretty face beside that troll with the big nose and smile Emily…. the image with the ruins is a good one….peter:)
The trolls were everywhere, Peter! I really enjoyed the folklore in Sweden, that’s for sure 🙂
Being beside someone as cute as you sure put a smile on his face.
