To end of the day, I went walkign about, thats the great thing about long daylight hours, you get to walk about even after everything closes.
This is Gustaf-something, founder of Göteborg, pointing to the exact spot where the center of Göteborg should be. But actually the Dutch built Göteborg as they were the engineers behind the draining of the swamps around. The canals criss-crossing the city both acted as a big drain system, a mode of transportation, and a moat for protection.
the largest shopping complex in Scandinavia. I just smile politely. Suntec's shopping area would be a fair match IMHO.
The houses here are very nice, each is different from the other because they were all built in differnt generations.
a castle on top a hill. once for fortification now you can rent for birthdays and weddings.

the central station. it was raining so the picture not as good as i would like it. Göteborg has the most number of days with rain in Sweden. Cameramen are not impressed by that statistic.
inside the central station, seeking refuge from teh rain.
the central bus station next to the train station. the roof is actually glass, so in the daytime its all blue.
Where the busses actually dock, and the doors open. Very nice.
