The Stockholm Tunnelbana (Stockholm Metro)


How we love good company. It's not just about having good friends, but how they treat you and the memories and experiences you share with them. Isn't that just delightful?

We met with Anika, Orka and their daughter Matilda in Huddinge for a nice Saturday. The plan is to help them with gardening and to have a wonderful dinner together.

We decided to use the Stockholm Metro (or the Tunnelbana) to get there. I always think that we are geographically blessed because our house is just a two-four minute walk from the Odenplan subway station (on the green line). My school is also on the green line, at the Skanstull station.

One of the many entrances of the Odenplan station 

Odenplan after the ticket-gates. 

So we plan to go to Ragsved (note that the "a" should have a little circle on top of it) and walk about a kilometer or two to the house. Most of the Tunnelbana we use is underground, but the route from Gullmarsplan to Ragsved is amazing. Everything is above ground and the scenery was very natural. 


Whilst on the subway, the train stopped at the Globen station and it has a view of the globe. See that mini-globe above the larger one? Well you can ride on that and get an awesome view of the whole Stockholm. I want to go there some day.

Arrived at Ragsved! 

By the way, here's something that may catch your attention. This is a video I took just after we left the Gamla Stan station to Slussen. What an amazing view. I see this everyday. Very stunning. 

Sorry for the quality of this video. Filmed from an iPhone. Watch in H.D

I saw my school from Skanstull - Gullmarsplan!
