The streets of Vasastan have a homey feel to them, as this is mostly a residential area.

Rörstrandsgatan is a street worthy of a closer look. Small shops and vintage stores are sprinkled around this part of town. Architecture buffs should stop by the Stadsbiblioteket library, designed by the famous Swedish architect Gunnar Asplund. For many young people in Stockholm, Vasastan is the district that holds the most appeal – the area is rich with cosy cafés and a range of shops that guarantee to suit all tastes.

An abundance of small local restaurants populates the area, mainly concentrated around Odenplan and St. Eriksplan.
