Gotland

Visby, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is on the small Swedish island of Gotland in the Baltic sea. It's known for it well perseved medieval town wall, and the Lummelunda cave. There were an astounding 92 churches built here between the 12th and 14th centuries with only some remaining. The museum is the best place to see its interesting history dating back to 900AD.

Very welcoming people, lots to see and often great weather. Though always a water shortage, expensive ferry to get there (no tax-free) and you need to ask the locals to find the really good swimming spots. If you want a less tourist type visit I suggest going off season. Most of the "tourist traps" are closed, only the places the locals like manage to stay open and there's still lots to see! I really do recommend visiting Gotland!

This is one of the most beautiful islands in the Baltic sea. There are cute little villages with great restaurants. Amazing cliffs, empty country roads, beaches and hidden little treasures all over thr island. You can find everything from party to tranquility.

A lot of comfy places to spend the summer especially during the medieval week. The sound of ocean waves accompany your sunset hunting moment. While living in Sweden it's worth to visit this beautiful-historical island.

Admittedly, I didn't see much of Gotland beyond the old town of Visby and a distant cruise along the island. Nonetheless, this is clearly a beautiful place; so much to explore and see within a short distance. Who'd have thought it possible to have so many church ruins in such a small area. Would definitely return to explore further afield.
