There are gardens, and there are GARDENS. Recently I visited Wij Trädgårdar (Wij Gardens) in the town of Ockelbo, about 2 hours car drive north of Stock
holm. Every time I go there, it is like entering some kind of paradise. Have a coffee outside the old m
ansion, stroll by the vegetable gardens made by the
gardener school situated there, enjoy the elaborate rose garden, be astonished by the artisan works in and around the gardens, be inspired by the examples of different garden settings. Lake, fields, plantings, old buildings, bridges, garden shop – everything has this air of peacefulness. Wij Gardens is wellknown over Scandinavia, I
wish I could spread the word in the world about this beautiful place. If you go there, perhaps you will even get a glimpse of the crown prinsess family, since prince Daniel is born in Ockelbo.
