Haga

Where Linnegatan ends at Järntorget it is only a block to walk before you enter Haga. It is a wooden town in the city, spared the demolitions teams when all too much of the old buildings were torn down during the sixties to give place to constructions in concrete and steel.

Today Haga has become a place for the well to do as well as a tourist trap for visitors and locals alike. In all honesty there is only one street for strolling around. The rest is almost purely residential areas.

That street joins Linnegatan and Vasastaden.

This is mostly a place for the day. Late evenings it is quiet here.



I'm walking from Hagaparken in the direction of Linnegatan. The shot is along the main street.



Another shot along the street.
Even though it is all cobblestones and pedestrians cars are allowed to drive here, but mostly you'll be surrounded by people lazily walking or sitting at one of the cafes and restaurants.



One side street leads up to an old fortification. Skansen Kronan was basically a fortified gun emplacement overlooking the river and the killing zones between the fortification and the city walls.
