Sweden has 270,000 islands, the largest number of islands in the world

Sweden is a country located in Scandinavia, and is also the largest country in Northern Europe in terms of area. Don't look at the country of Sweden is not large, only 450,000 square kilometers, but the number of islands more than 270,000, known as the country of 10,000 islands. However, only more than 8,000 islands have buildings on them, and the rest are basically in a relatively primitive state.

And the most amazing thing is that although from the number of statistics, Sweden has 270,000 islands, but you really travel to the country, you do not have a strong feeling that there are too many islands, because these islands are so densely distributed that they have almost become an integral part of the city, so we all take it for granted as the main part of the city.

In contrast, the number of islands in the world's larger territories is not much different than Sweden. Canada is a large area, but only 52,455 islands, Indonesia is only 17,508

Every year to Sweden is quite a lot of tourists, and Sweden is not only a beautiful environment, or a very rich developed country, per capita GDP reached 51,610 U.S. dollars, basically we all know about Sweden's high welfare, no cost of medical care, education does not cost, all the government out of pocket, why Sweden can have a very enviable high welfare, the reason is exactly the same, not only the people are not bad money, the government also has money.

Of course, if you go to Sweden, you will not only see the islands, but also the continuous mountains and the Northern Lights, as well as the forests, castles, mountains, beaches, and other unique topography, all of which are unique tourist attractions. For many people, if you travel to Northern Europe, Sweden is definitely one of the most important stops.
