An evening stroll in Stockholm. That's of course the recognizable City Hall in the far background.

Hi, Slav! I'm planning a trip to Stockholm and I want to visit some Ghost-related places of interest. I know about Garlic & Shots and a church, where the Year Zero video was filmed. Do you know other must-sees? Thank you!
Garlic & Shots is a must of course. Try the Ghost burger, it’s very good, but I must also recommend the good ole Swedish meatballs, the extra garlic makes it ever more delicious. They also have a very cool room downstairs with pinball games and stuff, and good music.
For an opportunity to 'stand where Papa once stood' haha, definitely the golden hall at Stockholms stadshus where the Impera photoshoot took place (that hall has paid entrance, but worth it). Meliora photos were taken at Stockholms stadsbibliotek, in particular near the entrance on and on the staircase up to the book hall. I recall there was also a photoshoot with Papa III done at Botkyrka church in Norsborg. Tobias used to live quite near that church in his youth, and Norsborg is also where he wrote the very first Ghost song. The first demos I believe were recorded somewhere in Gröndal and Stadshagen. It may be nice to take a stroll through those places just to see where it all started. Eric Ericsonhallen where the music video for Spillways was shot. Very nice on the inside, but unfortunately I think it’s closed off from the public most of the time unless some event is taking place, but maybe you’ll be lucky. It’s on Skeppsholmen, so from there you can take a ferry to the ABBA museum ;-) Some recording studios where Ghost recorded - Artery Studios at Katarinavägen (Prequelle), Atlantis Metronome at Karlbergsvägen (Impera). Maybe Buttericks on Drottninggatan where Tobias bought the very first ghoul costumes haha. They still sell similar ones there.
While you're in Stockholm, I recommend taking a train to Linköping, it’s not far so you can make it a one-day trip. From the main station, you can walk on foot to Linköpings domkyrka, the cathedral from the cover of Opus Eponymous. It is being renovated right now, so you may not see it in its fully glory, but nonetheless it's beautiful inside and out. If you wanna see the streets where Tobbe grew up take a stroll through Tannefors - Nya Tanneforsvägen and Tegelbruksgatan; and where he lived later in particular when Ghost was taking its first steps - Apotekaregatan, Drottninggatan (get a kanelbulle at Babettes :)).. Some 'historic' Ghost venues where they played: Doom on Ågatan (where Papa III played his first show and Papa II his last), and Cupolen/Folketspark (first Papa's last show, II's first). Maybe S:t Larskyrka, which inspired one of the first backdrops the band used on tour. The record store Bengans, lots of Ghost goodies there and there’s a wall with signatures from Papa III and Cardinal Copia. Hmm I'm sure I'm forgetting something, but that’s it from the top of my head. Hope you enjoy the trip!

This is the impressive Stockholm Council Chamber (Rådshallen) in Stockholm City Hall (Stadshus) opened in 1923. The Municipal Council of Stockholm meets every 3 week in the Council Chamber. The interior is kept in red and other warm color shades. The 19 meter high ceiling can be sensed between the exposed trusses - which are designed with the inspiration from the Viking Age. At the top there are light blue clouds and sky motifs that reinforce the impression of the ceiling height. The Stockhm City Hall located on Kungsholm took 12 years to build to be finished in 1923. The City Hall is famous for its grand ceremonial halls and unique pieces of art and it isthe venue of the Nobel Prize banquet every year 10th of December. #stockholm #sweden #cityhall #architecture #landmark https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch7gxHoNIwM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Magi i Blå hallen adventskalender 2019 #16
Magi i Blå hallen adventskalender 2019 #16
Gårdagens luciakonsert i Blå hallen med Stockholms musikgymnasium var ren och skär magi. Körsång när det är som allra vackrast. Ljusspel och levande ljus som omslöt oss åhörare. En ensam lucia som skred ner för den legendariska trappan.
I ett hus som är så vackert. Som bjuder på så förunderliga vyer.
Telefonens kamera fick vila större delen av konserten, jag ville ta in med full närvaro.
