Jolly good fun in old Gothenburg
Gothenburg is the fifth largest city in the Nordic region and has a lot to offer – whether you are in the city for just a quick stop or choose to stay for a few days. Universeum is an adventurous science centre located on Korsvägen in the southern part of central Gothenburg. The centre is an excellent Easter activity and is suitable for the whole family – both for curious children and interested parents. Universeum is divided into different exhibitions and teaches you and your family everything about space, the rainforest and the ice age.
Easter activities do not have to cost an arm and a leg.

The water park includes the Nordic region’s longest water slide, sauna yoga and several pools with temperatures of at least 32 degrees.
