16. Stockholm [Plate 43). 



Stockholm, the capital of the kingdom of Sweden, has a highly pictur- 

 esque situation, partly on islands, partly on the mainland at the outlet of 

 Lake Malar. The city contains a population amounting to 90,000, and is 

 divided into six parts ; the city proper, on three islands, Helgeand, Stads-, 



. and Riddarholm. Norrmalm, with Blasiiholm, united to the city proper by 

 a handsome granite bridge ; Sodermalm, the southern suburb; Skips- and 

 Caslellholm to the north-east ; Ladugorsland, with Djurgorden. in the east, 

 and Kongesholm. The central part of the city has many beautiful buildings, 

 fine squares and regular streets, while the outside consists of miserable 

 hovels. Among the principal buildings are : the Castle on the island of 



. Stockholm, built in 1698-1701, with a large garden ; the Hoved- and Ritter- 

 holm Churches, the latter with the tombs of the kings (since Charles X.), with 

 those of many eminent men, together with 5000 standards captured in battle ; 



/the Adolph Frederick's Church ; the Opera House, Arsenal, City Hall, and 

 the Nobles' House; the immense Iron Warehouse; the Store House ; the Palace 



\<of the Stattholder ; the Bank, Mint, Observatory, &c. Among the monuments
