Stockholm tour 5/6 day trip to Uppsala

Took the train for a trip to Uppsala. Dominated by a twin towers cathedral, tallest in Scandinavia, and a castle.





What interested me most is the garden and museum of Linnaeus, the man who created the plant classification system. 
 



 

Nearby is the house and studio of a famous local artist, Bror Hjorth, free to visit, very colourful paintings and child like sculptures. It is great to see a real lived in house in mid 20th C with a nice small courtyard, many big trees and flower beds.
