Liseberg is Scandinavia’s biggest amusement park and the biggest tourist attraction in Sweden with over three million visitors every year. Gröna Lund, the amusement park in Stockholm, doesn’t attract half that number of people and the second-most visited attraction in Gothenburg, Universeum, brings in 500,000, which gives you an idea of Liseberg’s popularity. The park opened in 1923 and has more than 30 rides, including the steepest wooden rollercoaster in the world. If you are not in need of such adrenaline kicks, Liseberg is also one of the greenest amusement parks in Europe and a great place to walk around. You can also enjoy shows and concerts, which are held here frequently during the summer. Liseberg is open every day in the summer, during weekends in late spring and early fall and closed in the winter, except around Christmas when they open again with a market that is really worth a visit.
