Malmö – made for shopping
Malmö has 800 shops and counting, as well as 7 shopping centres; Hansa, Triangeln, Caroli, Balthazar City, Storgatan, Åhléns and Mobilia.
Of all the cities you could go shopping, Malmö has to be one of the best. It has it all – everything is within walking distance, it has a huge range of exciting shops, boutiques, department stores and shopping centres in an attractively laid out city, most of it pedestrian walkway – so no smelly car fumes to worry about. And a currency, the Swedish crown, which has seen better times, particularly against the Euro.
Don’t say we didn’t tell you.
Swedish design is famous around the world for marrying form and function in furniture, interior decoration, clothes and household objects.

Malmö comes into its own as the centre of nightlife in the Skåne region in the “wee, small hours”. The city rocks 7 nights a week, particularly in summertime, with bars, clubs, live music of every hue and restaurant cocktail lounges that turn into nightclubs and are open until 3 a.m.
Malmö is the epitome of a “garden city” with the stately and beautiful Folkets Park, Slottsparken, Pildammsparken and Kungsparken forming a green corridor between the beaches at Ribersborg and the Stadion area of town to the north-east.
