Haga park, English landscape park in Solna Municipality, Sweden
Haga Park is an English landscape garden in Solna Municipality featuring woodland areas, open meadows, and several architectural buildings throughout the grounds. Winding paths connect these different areas and create a unified design across the entire estate.
King Gustav III commissioned this garden in the late 18th century under architects Fredrik Magnus Piper and Louis Jean Desprez. The project was part of the king's plan to create a modern royal estate in the English style.
The park contains various structures like the Copper Tents and Turkish Kiosk that show how Swedish nobility designed gardens in the 18th century. These buildings reflect the era's taste for exotic and romantic elements.
The park is easy to reach and offers multiple walking trails plus rest areas for various activities. Good connections to Stockholm's public transportation make visiting straightforward.
The park contains Haga Palace, which has maintained its royal connection since the estate was created. It remains a private residence today and demonstrates how the garden and royal home were designed as one integrated space.

Stockholm has over 70 museums and cultural institutions spread between its medieval city center and its islands accessible within a few minutes by tram. The city has preserved its original buildings while developing modern exhibition spaces that cover a thousand years of Scandinavian history. Visitors can spend a day walking from the cobbled streets of Gamla Stan, lined with 17th-century merchant houses, to the contemporary galleries of Fotografiska housed in former port warehouses. The permanent collections cover diverse fields. The Vasa Museum displays a 69-meter (226 feet) warship recovered intact after three centuries underwater. The Royal Palace opens its state apartments and treasury to the public. Djurgården Island features several major sites, including Skansen open-air museum with 150 historic buildings from across Sweden, the Modern Art Museum with works by Dalí and Picasso, and ABBA The Museum dedicated to the band that sold 400 million records. The Nobel Museum chronicles the history of the Nobel Prize since 1901 with objects belonging to over 900 laureates.
