Royal Palace, Gamla Stan, National Gallery, Historical Museum.
On our second day, we visited the Royal Palace, National Gallery, and the Historical Museum. The Royal Palace was interesting in that the Armoury exhibit has the real clothing that some kings were wearing when they were assassinated or slain; you can see the puncture marks from the weapons. The National Gallery was quite disappointing because parts of the collection was closed; at least it was free. The Gold Room in the Historical Museum has an extensive collection of Viking gold is well worth visiting. We also spent some time walking around Gamla Stan in the evening.
