Viking History Day Trip from Stockholm
Malmo - Malmö is a city in the south of Sweden. It is
the third of Sweden's towns with a population of 250,000 inhabitants and has
a modern and continental atmosphere, with a number of preserved buildings
from older centuries. A 35 minutes short trip by train takes you to
Copenhagen over the the Öresund Bridge. 
Helsingborg - Situated at Sweden's closest point to Denmark, with Elsinore clearly visible 4km away on the other side of the Oresund Strait, Helsingborg remains one of the most important ports in Europe. The strategic location means it was settled early, around a millennium ago, and explains the imposing ramparts that have stood guard over the town for 600 years.
