🌸Here are 3 popular cherry blossom hotspots in Stockholm.🌸 The season usually peaks around middle/end of April. There is also a cherry blossom day celebrated together with the Japanese association in Stockholm end of April. You can find the schedule and date on their website: http://japanskaforeningenisthlm.se/sv/ in 2023 it is on the 23rd of April from 13:00-17:00 at Kungsträdgården.
You could probably make it to all 3 of the most popular hotspots in one day and catch them all!
Here is how I would do it:
get some take-away breakfast and coffee at Stora Bageriet (opens 7:30/8am) and walk to Kungsträdgården or opt for a breakfast at Thelins Grand Cafe (opens at 9am) right by the cherry blossom trees
Start with your first cherry blossom stop at Kungsträdgården in the morning
From here walk to the metro station Östermalmstorg and take the metro to Mariatorget (exit Torkel Knutssongatan)
Check out the beautiful cherry blossoms at Bysistorget and stop at Kaffebar for a fika/lunch
once you feel like you soaked it all in, walk 5 minutes to the bus stop Zinkensdamm and catch the number 74 towards Sickla Udde. Hop off at Luma, which is your final cherry blossom hotspot.
When you are ready to leave this spot and got all the shots you need, head to Nya Carnegiebryggeriet, which is just a few minutes walking and wind down with a beer and some hearty food by the water.
