Hey, no matter where you're coming from or who you're meeting in Stockholm, you'll always end up at this square. Everyone calls it "The Hole." It's always packed with people and there's always something going on, from protests to demonstrations to environmental rallies. It's the place to be for any kind of gathering, big or small. This is like the center of Stockholm for regular people, especially foreigners. You can also get to the high-speed electric trains, Pendeltåg, near the entrance to the Stockholm metro. Thank goodness the architects and city officials thought to put in a public toilet, even though it costs 10 seconds, which is about 1 Euro, to use it. But it's big and always clean. There are also a ton of shops and places to eat nearby. Oh, and there's a liquor store right next to the square. It's one of the few in Stockholm that's open until 8:00 p.m. on weekdays and from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on Saturdays. You know, in Sweden, you can only buy alcohol at Systembolaget stores, and most of them close at 7:00 p.m. I know, I know, there are always those people who know someone who knows someone else who sells alcohol without the tax, but I don't trust the quality of that stuff or where it comes from.
