Shopping

Uppsala is a lively shopping city. There is a nice mix of modern malls, specialty shops, cafés and restaurants. Shop, have a coffee or just enjoy the pulse of the city and the beautiful Uppsala surroundings. You can take a walk among the charming shops in the cobblestone cultural district around the Fyris River and St. Erik's Square, or along the popular pedestrian street where most of the city's fashionable malls and chain stores are located. If you continue under the railroad tracks, you will find small shops and the old Godsmagasinet, a former goods warehouse that now serves as a popular design and art gallery.
