The tramway
Tramways used to be quite an essential part of communiting in Stockholm. Nowadays there is a modern tramway that cuts through Stockholm, although not the central parts.There is though a old tramway still in existence and it comes alive every summer. Between Norrmalmstorg (torg = square) and the area called Djurgården (where the amusement parks Gröna Lund and Skansen lies) they traffic a couple of kilometres.
They use old tramcars aswell which you can see from this picture just 150 metres from Norrmalmstorg at Nybrokajen. The tramway was a permanent picture in Stockholms citylife until 1967 when it got disbanded, leaving way to the much more efficient undergroundsystem that was being built out.
