Leaving Klippan and Novotel behind.
And Eriksberg is ahead of us. The last ten years have seen the contruction of homes for literally tens of thousands of people where there used to be run down disused storage areas from an era when the central city still held the harbour.
In a way the best with the northern side is the view of the southern, where the city center is located. Taking the ferry from Klippan all the way to it's terminal stop without stepping off for a walk will give you most the views.
Some of the new homes come with private boating places.
Some of the last centrally paced remnants of the traditional architecture for the western coast of Sweden. This style is still quite common the farther out and north you get.
The river still carries some heavy traffic including large ships.
Amerikaskjulet, the last building in Sweden for hundreds of thousands leaving for America late 19th and early 20th century. The shot is across the river.
The Paddan boats is the epithome of touristic way to see Gothenburg. I can recommend it. Behind lies one of the Stena ferries destined for Denmark, and in the background you can see Skansen Kronan perched upon a hilltop.
