My plane landed at Stockholm-Arlanda Airport the day before under gray skies , a steady drizzle and a temperature hovering around 50 degrees Fahrenheit . Stockholm is built on 14 islands that separate the Baltic Sea from Lake Mälaren . The Old Town is one of the best preserved medieval city centers in the world . Boats are a great way to sightsee , but make sure you get on the right one . If you’re looking for something more modern and less touristy, head over to Norrmalmstorg or Kungsholmen.
