Kungliga borgen, Royal palace in Gamla Stan, Stockholm, Sweden
The Royal Palace features 600 rooms spread across nine wings, serving as the official residence of the Swedish monarch in central Stockholm.

The Royal Palace contains multiple museums showcasing the Treasury, Royal Apartments, and Museum of Antiquities, presenting Swedish monarchical heritage.
Visitors can tour the State Apartments, Treasury, and Tre Kronor Museum daily between 10:00 and 16:00, with guided tours available in multiple languages.
