Stieg Larsson"s Stockholm - Discover the City Through the Millennium Trilogy
So many millions of people can not be mistaken...
'Millennium' is the blockbuster of the year! Thanks to this Stieg Larsson's trilogy, Södermalm's streets - one of the 14 islands comprising the city of Stockholm, have become famous worldwide.
The trilogy now has its complete cinema adaptation of which the second part will shortly be screened for the first time hoping to enjoy the same success as the first part.
Since 'Millennium' has been on sale, the previously quiet old town of Södermalm has become a bubbling cauldron full of "literary tourists" looking for the places where the protagonists of the trilogy moved around: the young hacker Lisbeth Salander and the detective Mikael Blomkvist.
With Larsson, Stockholm and its islands have become the fictional scenario of a story of murder and extortion and has also become a mass tourist phenomenon.
'Millennium' has opened up a tourist route through the most special enclaves of the trilogy, the majority located in Södermalm: the editor of the Millenium magazine, in Götgatan, 19; Bellsmangatan street, where the journalist Mikael Blomkvist lives; or Mösebacke Toro Square, considered the most beautiful square in Stockholm.
In fact, even the advertisers use the "Millennium Route" to sponsor their products and Bellsmangatan Street has become the perfect setting for a German car catalogue.
The most famous museum of the city, the Stadsmuseum, sells copies of the " Millenium Route" map, which makes a journey through the highlights of the trilogy.
Thanks to Larsson's novel, Södermalm has experienced an amazing growth; it has considerably increased its income and a lot of new stores and bars have had to open just to supply the flood of tourists arriving daily.
Have you still not read 'Milenium'? Come on, get your copy in your favourite bookshop and enjoy the best literature.
Then you can travel to Sweden and rent apartments in Stockholm.
You'll love it!
