The best time to go is on National Holiday in June. They have all kinds of activities and festivities to celebrate. On this day admission is free to everyone. They end the day with a royal parade. However if you are not visiting in June this should still be a must see on your to do list. The Palace is still used today for royal duties. The pomp and circumstance that still thrives in Sweden is breathtaking.

The Royal Palace is one of the historic crown jewels of Stockholm. An absolute must visit while wandering through the big city. Carve out some time to observe the grand architecture & intricate details. Remarkably stunning & unforgettable.

This is a Royal Palace worthy of its name! Very nice to visit, impressive rooms and exhibits. Please don't bring your screaming small children here. They don't even understand where they are but they spoil the experience in an otherwise quiet and elegant space.

This is one stop that you probably shouldn't skip if you're in Stockholm, especially if you're trying to learn about their culture and history. Every room of the palace is a piece of art that tells a different story, from the paintings, sculptures, and wall decor, to the garments, pins and flags that have been made over the decades. A cool detail is that the Sweden still utilizes the palace to celebrate certain events, so it serves multiple purposes. Genuinely an impressive and massive architecture inside and out. We didn't have to wait in line to buy the tickets or get into the palace, but you can buy those online if you're interested. The palace itself takes a good amount of time to get around, especially if you're into Sweden's history and culture, around 2-3 hours and maybe even more.

Wonderful experience at the Royal Palace. I went on a Monday in September and there were minimal crowds which is great. Your admission ticket also includes access to other museums on site so you should go and check them out too!
