Vasteras tourist information

Vasteras Sweden

Västerås is a large city with the benefits of a small town. It has a city's opportunities in trade, industry, employment, education, entertainment, services, culture and transportation. The small town benefits include shorter distances, the lack of traffic jams, fresh air, and a more human pace that leaves time left over for yourself, your family and your hobbies. The journey between Västerås and Stockholm takes a mere 50 minutes by trains which run twice an hour from early morning to late at night.

Thousands of homes are being built and planned near the shores of lake Mälaren. You can live in an educational metropolis, where the University is expanding at an exceptional rate. You can settle in a city where fresh ideas and activities are constantly appearing and developing, and where large and small companies benefit from one another. There are laboratories and panoramic views, research and lush forests, dynamic trade and peaceful hammocks, culture and yachts.

In brief, a human city with human proportions, allowing ideas and people to grow.

Take a walk around this city with its many shops and cafés. You will soon notice that you recognise many faces and greet dozens of people you meet.
