I really enjoyed this site. There is a lot of information that is easily gained by reading the placards and the multilingual staff seemed friendly. You could easily spend a half-day enjoying a leisurely walk around the mounds, visiting the museum and reading through the...More
We were staying in Uppsala for the weekend and Gamla Uppsala is a short drive (or walk if you are up to it) from the city. There had been a fresh fall of snow overnight, which was ideal for me because I was looking forward...More
