Parks in Stockholm take up large spaces and each park is unique on its own, but Ivar Los park is definitely the one that is worth our visitors’ time. It was named after its founder and conceptual creator Ivar Lo-Johansson, who moved in the building across the park in 1934. He was so amazed by the whole district that he wanted to leave a piece of his legacy on the stretch of land the park was located on in Stockholm. On that piece of land there used to be houses from the 18th century that were demolished in the 1930s so the park project could be realized.
The park is very romantic and you may find secluded spaces to spend time with your loved ones. Parks in Stockholm are extremely popular in summer time because of the warm weather, so visitors can stay longer outside. In Ivar-Los’s house there is a museum today, founded in 1991 (a year after he passed away), so curious visitors may also visit this museum when visiting the park. Ivar was a famous Swedish writer, he won the Nordic Council's Literature Prize in 1979.
