It was very cozy and lovely. Visited some museums and walked around the city and hiked to the Bergsjön in the morning. There was a beautiful lake and view to the whole city. Met some friends and they showed me around.
Posted: July 24, 2024Gothenburg is my hometown. Everywhere downtown is really safe, I even used to walk home alone from night clubs in the middle of the night and I have never felt unsafe.
Posted: July 13, 2023Accommodation: I can recommend Slottsskogens hostel. Recommendations: Gothenburg is not a big city and it does not have as many attractions to see compared to other European cities, but it is worth trying to see a bit of nature around it if you like forests/oceans. I really recommend doing a day trip to one of the archipelagos, you can easily get there by public ferry, and they are beautiful.

Pretty safe, avoid "nordstan" at night perhaps, mostly drunks to avoid at night. Pubs are pretty safe with friends. "Andra lång" street by the tram station "järntorget" has really fun pubs an nightlife but most things close at 2.
Posted: April 9, 2025Gothenburg is the safest city I have ever experienced. The city itself is super calm, people respect each other and nobody rushes anywhere. The streets are light, wide and 95% of the city is lightened in the dark.

Hey girls! I'm a lifelong feminist & LGBTQ ally who wants a better & safer world for all women & unicorns. I'm passionate about helping in any way possible, but most poignantly by community building, keeping each other safe, really just being a girl's girl. The future is female! ✌️✌️✌️

Born in Bosnia and now calling Sweden home, I have always been drawn to the richness of different cultures, landscapes, and human connections. With a deep curiosity for the world and a love for adventure, I see travel as more than just a getaway—it’s a way to understand people, history, and the stories that shape us.
