When the summertime daylight hours stretch languorously toward midnight, Swedes stay out late, eating, drinking and ferrying between the jewel-like islands scattered along its archipelago. But even in the darkest winter months, the Swedish know a thing or two about keeping warm.

Discover the secrets of Sweden through T+L—the trendsetting design shops, hot restaurants and boutique hotels that insiders know—as well as maps and travel deals to get you there and around.
