Fjallbacka, Sweden

Fjallbacka

According to the sound judgement of Captain Klassen, neither the South China Sea nor the Caribbean can match the Fjällbacka archipelago, when it comes to sheer beauty.

The most beautiful view of Fjällbacka you get from the sea. Scattered below the mighty mountain "Vetteberget", the wooden houses spread out, facing the sea and the sheltered harbour, which is still the centre of the village.

Down there, the old men dont pay much attention to modern phenomena like computers and IT. There are much more important things in life:the mackerel will soon be coming in and the dinghy needs some new paint. This is the place where Ingrid Bergman spent her summers, this is where she found peace. And this is where you will find the hotel "Stora Hotellet", with its 23 rooms. In the middle of the county of Bohuslän, in the middle of the world.
