On our travels in Sweden this past summer we had many amazing experiences that were muo ostly unplanned, and while I enjoyed anything having to do with water, either ocean or lake the most, there were also other destinations that made our trip very well rounded indeed, including a stop at the historic copper mine in Falun, which is in the Dalarna region. As it turns out, this is a World Unesco Heritage Site, so certainly worth a visit if you are in the area, and if you are traveling with kids it looks like the underground tour might be something to consider. We chose to walk around the grounds, which is free of charge, and that in itself was enough for us, but you may want to visit the museum, or take the trolley around the area. It all depends on how much time you have and how interested you are in the subject of mining! Join me for a little tour, and enjoy!
This used to be the train station, today it houses the museum.
Hope you've enjoyed this little tour, stay tuned for more Swedish adventures!
