As the city's oldest ‘suburb,’ Haga stands as a small town in its own right, offering a nostalgic and enchanting experience for visitors. Strolling through Haga's narrow, cobbled streets evokes a sense of time travel, transporting you back at least a hundred years. Its traditional wooden buildings house a plethora of cosy cafés, pubs, and quaint shops, where you can peruse books, crafts, and locally-made knitwear. Haga is also home to the magnificent 17th-century fortress Skansen Kronan, which offers panoramic views of the city.

The Royal Tank Museum rolls into Amman’s cultural scene with unexpected swagger, its 150 armoured beasts (from WWI relics to Jordan’s homegrown modifications) displayed with cinematic flair. Architect Zaid Daoud’s sleek 2018 design lets you circle Soviet T-34s and hulking Challengers like a battlefield rubbernecker, while interactive displays appeal to kids and military buffs alike. Displayed chronologically, the exhibits trace Jordan’s martial legacy from the Arab Revolt’s camel cavalry to 1967’s Battle of Karamah, though the real stars are the machines. German Panzers stand next to locally retrofitted Centurions, their spec in English and Arabic. Recharge your batteries at the café on the top floor. Budget an hour, ignore the jingoistic plaques, and don’t miss the outdoor arena where (select weekends) engines roar to life.

Opened in 1934, the Gothenburg City Theatre is Sweden's oldest of its kind and one of the country's largest dramatical theatres. Its diverse repertoire encompasses classical, contemporary, and international plays and performances. Before the shows, theatergoers frequently gather at Foajébaren, a bustling lobby bar renowned as a favored pre-theatre meeting spot.

The Museum of Gothenburg’s exhibitions tell the story of 12,000 years of history, explore the city of today and take a look into the future. You’ll find the museum in the unique setting of the Swedish East India Company building from the 1750s. They offer guided city walks, lectures and other activities.
