Västra Götalands län


ästra Götaland County is a county on the western coast of Sweden. The formal capital and seat of the governor of Västra Götaland County is Gothenburg, whereas the political capital and seat of the Västra Götaland Regional Council is Vänersborg....

When in Gothenburg, make sure you visit Liseberg, the most noted attraction, which is an amusement park, located in the central part of the city. It is the largest amusement park in Scandinavia. Also, worth seeing is The Gothenburg Central Station, with its beautiful nordic architecture. On the other hand, the city of Vänersborg, is ideal for those who like to explore, as it offers a pure and magnificent nature, capable to host several activities. You can go to Ursand, one of the most beautifully located campsites in Europe, or to the Brinkebergskulle slussar, a water lock sitting just south of lake Vanern and great place to do a bit of ship watching. For relaxing, chose Gaddesanna, a great sand beach on the north edge of the mountain Halleberg.
