Drottningholm Palace
What the experts agree on
Sweden's grandest palace sits majestically on a Lake Mälaren island, best experienced arriving by boat to admire its façade. The 18th-century English gardens with pools and canals are equally spectacular.
“The landscaped garden (1780) is designed in the English style, with pools, canals, islands and bridges.”
