Gotland, Sweden | The Time Capsule of the Baltic Sea!

Medieval Town & Limestone Wonders
Destination: Gotland—Sweden's largest island, inspiration for *Game of Thrones* filming locations!

🌟 Must-Do Experiences:

Visby Old Town 🏰: A perfectly preserved Hanseatic wall with a 3 km medieval circular walkway (Medieval Week in July is super lively!)

Fårö Limestone Stacks 🗿: Take a boat to this mysterious island to see 45-meter-high wind-carved rock formations

Blue Cave Exploration 🔵: Discover the natural sea caves on Stora Karlsö Island, where the water glows fluorescent blue

Saffron Festival 🌷: In April, farms across the island open for saffron picking and bread-making workshops

🚗 Travel Tips:

Take a 3-hour ferry from Stockholm (6 daily departures in peak season); renting a bike is the most local way to explore

Guided tours (with safety gear) are required to visit the limestone stacks

📸 Photo Tips:

Best light for the old town: Shoot silhouettes of the walls at sunrise

Use a wide-angle lens and a drone for epic shots of the limestone stacks

Waterproof camera needed for the blue cave—brightest blue at noon
