As you know, the Swedish royal court, unlike other countries, did not limit itself to one or two royal residences. I managed to read at least 9 palaces and castles, which were used to some extent by members of the royal dynasty. Today we will talk about one of the main ones - Drottningholm Palace, which, after the Royal Palace in the center of Stockholm, is the number two object in the hierarchy of importance of royal property and number one of all Swedish objects included in the list of powerful UNESCO. The palace is located outside the city and for the convenience of tourists two routes have been worked out. For the happy holders of the Stockholm card and the right to free travel, this is the metro to the T-Brommplan station and then transfer to bus 176.177, 301 or 323. And the second option for lovers of sea travel on an authentic ferry from the City Hall from May to September.
The journey is interesting and lasts about 45 minutes. The Swedish version, of course, includes a restaurant on board that will help you satisfy your hunger and keep your hands busy during the trip. The round-trip ferry costs NOK 195 and is operated by the ubiquitous company Stromma. This Stockholm's number one tour operator offers combined tickets on their website for 375 kr, which includes travel and entrance to the palace and Chinese pavilion. There are also trips dedicated to a theatrical performance in the palace theater in the evening. Roughly speaking, the ferry departs every hour from 9.30 to 18.00, but I recommend to follow the transformation of the schedule depending on the season and day of the week directly on the website of the carrier stromma. se. When you get to the palace, do not rush, as I did, immediately buy a ticket and rush on an excursion. Here it is worth thinking, reasoning and calculating the benefits.
In addition to the palace, the Chinese pavilion, the park and the palace theater are also open to the public. The Swedish financial machine considers kroons excellently, so prices have jumped compared to last season. A visit to the palace for grown-up members of society will cost 120 kroons, a Chinese pavilion 100 kroons and a tour of the theater another 100 kroons. In spring and autumn, like in the "low season", there are combinations of the palace and any other object for 180 crowns. Well, a hit of all times and seasons - a ticket "everywhere" for 260 crowns. All objects for visiting are open daily from 10.00 to 16.30 during the season from May to August. In other months, significant restrictions apply. Of course, there are daily tours in both English and Swedish, and during the high season there are tours in several more languages. Tours of the palace are held at 10.00, 12.00, 14.00 and 16.00 and cost an additional 10 crowns. The tour lasts 45 minutes. The Chinese Pavilion tours at 12.00, 14.00 and 16.00, which last 30 minutes.
Only groups are taken to the theater every hour. The tour lasts half an hour. Entry to the park is free and strongly recommended. And do not rush to sign in the inspection of the park. Be sure to find his map, otherwise you risk missing a lot. My initial guesses and final results about the size of the park differed significantly. For tickets, you can apply to each object separately, or immediately decide everything for yourself in one place - the Visitor Center. It is very well marked on the ground and stands out with signs, flags and a noisy cafe within it - you will not pass by. In conclusion, this is a full day visit, so plan ahead. Having been impressed by the palace and the park, I simply did not want to leave here.
