Mai Lin and the blue whale
While attending the Way Out West Music Festival at Goteborg (also known as Gothenburg), Sweden, I managed to squeeze in a little bit of time for sightseeing around the city.
Goteborg is a student city with populations of less than 1 million people. You can see the canals (influenced by the dutch) and other nations such as the German and Scottish. The city is very small thus walkable but if you are in a hurry, you can catch a tram. There’s a botanical garden, canal cruise, ports were the ship docks, Nordstand shopping center, arts museums and Natural History Museum.
I chose to explore the Natural History Museum (Naturhistorika Museet) which is located at Slottsskogen (the park where Way Out West Music Festival’s held).
The Natural History Museum is a home to Europe’s largest blue whale specimen. If you are under 25 years old, you get in for free
