Top ten tourist attractions in Sweden

This is a land where the spring and autumn are short and the winter and summer are clearly defined. In summer, you can see the midnight sun and see the magical and charming northern lights. Winter is a snow-capped scene and a paradise for skating and skiing. Perhaps it lacks the romantic temperament, culture and art of other European countries, but it is another strange paradise. The dense forests in the north are as deep as the ocean, and the midnight sun and the wonderful northern lights make people think about it. The lush flowers in the south are as dazzling as pictures, and the patches of green grass and endless lakes and mountains are refreshing. In summer, driving in the lonely and peaceful pastoral countryside, the typical natural scenery of northern China will definitely make you forget to leave.

Jota Canal The Jota Canal is a canal in Jotaran, Sweden, built in the early 19 th century. The waterway dominated by this canal passes through Lake Vinain and Lake Wetten, and extends to the Jota River and Trolheit Canal, connecting the Kattegat Strait city of Gothenburg and the Baltic city of Haicheng City Nanköping. The canal itself is 190.5 kilometers long, of which 87.3 kilometers were excavated and blasted. The width ranges from 7 to 14 kilometers, and the deepest point is about 3 kilometers. It has a total of 58 sluices and can accommodate ships 32 meters long, 7 meters wide and 2.8 meters draft.

The first person to propose the construction of a canal in southern Sweden in 1516 was the Bishop of Linköping, but it was Borcha von Platon, a German-born officer of the Swedish Navy in the 19th century who really implemented the idea. The construction plan was officially launched on April 11, 1810. It was the largest civil engineering project in history at that time. It took 22 years and involved a total of 58000 workers. Many talents and instruments needed to be purchased from foreign countries, especially the United Kingdom, which was the most advanced canal technology in the world at that time. The Yota Canal was officially opened in 1832 and flows through many industrial towns, promoting economic development and shortening the east-west shipping distance.

Nowadays, although the transportation role of the Jota Canal has declined, its main use is tourism and leisurely attractions. The river is picturesque and the tourism industry is quite developed. It is known as the "blue ribbon floating on Swedish soil". About 2 million people visit the Jota Canal on boats every year.

The cathedral's basement has remained its former appearance since 1123, with a large number of dense columns. These columns vary in style and were designed by architect Donatus.

South Ridge National Park The main body of South Ridge National Park is a mountain in the province of Skone in southern Sweden. The highest point is 212 meters above sea level and is famous for its canyon formed by cracks. The South Ridge is a horst that took 150 million years to form and was formed due to the subsidence of the surrounding high slopes. South Ridge National Park covers an area of 1625 hectares and is located near Klipan. The national park was established in 2001. The park is mainly composed of broad-leaved forests, especially beech trees. Due to the undulating terrain, many characteristics of ancient forests have been preserved. For example, there are many dead trees, which are very suitable for insect life. There are many rare Coleoptera insects in the forest.

This ridge was formed due to the fact that Skone Province experienced three seasons of glacier coverage and dissolution in ancient times. The final formation of this continuous ridge and the local humid and mild climate promoted the growth of wild moss and vegetation., and eventually led to the reproduction of deciduous forests and covered more than a thousand hectares of local land. One of the reasons why the Southern Ridge is called a national park is that it has and once had ancient wild deciduous forests and 300 species of moss, of which more than a dozen are listed as rare species. Another reason is that the vegetation on the ridge has been used in the "livestock land" of local farms for a long time since the 17th century, which means that it has certain economic and cultural preservation value.

With the development of animal husbandry in history, it has also caused irreparable losses to the local ecology. Due to the influence of humans and climate, the patches of deciduous rainforest were gradually replaced by pine forests, and the rich vegetation was relatively reduced. So far, only the continuous trees in the upper part of the ridge still retain the style of ancient deciduous forests, while the trees below the ridge were gradually planted by later generations. But even trees planted by later generations have a history of dozens or hundreds of years.
