PHOTOGRAPHY: GLOBEN

The Ericsson Globe Arena, known locally as "Globen" (The Globe) is located in the borough of Johanneshov, just south of Södermalm. It is an arena in which concerts and events are held, and can be seen from the higher vantage points around the city.

It is a strange building, as - from a distance - it looks enormous, but the closer you get, it does not look very big at all. There is a cable car  (Skyview) that takes you up to the top of the dome, which gives nice views of the city, and it is situated very near to the Tele2 Arena (home to Hammarby IF and Djurgårdens IF). Globen will the venue of the 2016 Eurovision Song Contest.
