Right across Øresund, only half an hour's drive from Copenhagen is the cosy Swedish city of Malmö. Hotel.dk recommends a romantic weekend for you and your partner at a Malmö hotel. Or how about going shopping with your friends and getting pampered afterwards at one of Malmö's great hotels? At the moment, you can find some very good hotel offers in Malmö.
Shopping in Malmö
Despite its small size, Malmö has everything you would expect from a city, from appealing shops to cosy gourmet restaurants. Shoppers will find all they could wish for in department stores as well as in small shops with their own unique profiles. Malmö has all the major clothing brands as well as all the great Swedish designer clothes of course, and since Swedish currency is so cheap at the moment, you can find some very good offers.
Culture in Malmö
Apart from shopping, Malmö has plenty of other cultural experiences to offer. Contemporary international and Swedish stars often visit the city's music venues, and every August the atmosphere is alive with music when the Malmö Festival organises a profusion of free concerts of every genre in the parks and squares all over the city.
Family fun and art in Malmö
For families with children, the amusement park Folkets Park (the People's Park) is well worth a visit with its rides for children of all ages. And for art lovers, December 2009 saw the opening of a new museum of modern art, Moderna Museet Malmö. The museum is beautifully situated in a former power station, and its unique collection of modern art has made it an instant art hit. The spectacular skyscraper Turning Torso also makes for an interesting detour.
