Haga Nygata
What the experts agree on
Gothenburg's oldest suburb (since 1648) transformed from a 19th-century working-class neighborhood into the city's trendiest quarter. Distinctive wooden houses with stone ground floors now house independent shops and cosmopolitan cafés.
“Like most buildings in Haga, the buildings' ground floors were made of stone in order to prevent the spread of fire (the upper floors are wood). ”
