Tucked inside a restored 18th-century house, this small museum holds a surprisingly broad collection of decorative glass — everything from ancient pieces to Art Deco. Each room is set up with period furniture, so it feels more like walking through someone’s home than a typical museum.

Recharge your batteries with a traditional Arab bath experience — rotating between hot and cold pools, steam rooms, and optional massages. The space is calm and atmospheric, with arches, mosaics, and soft lighting that make it feel miles away from the city, even though you’re right in the centre. Good spot for a proper reset after a long day of sightseeing.

This organic vineyard in Monbazillac is housed in a spectacular chateau that dates back to the 13th century in the pristine Dordogne countryside. They produce wines of exceptionally high quality on their 14 acres of land, and the lovely staff are happy to show you around and teach you all about their process.

The Turning Torso is a neo-futurist skyscraper designed by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava and built in 2005. At 190 metres, it was the tallest building in the Nordic region until September 2022, when it was surpassed by Karlatornet in Gothenburg, which is still under construction. The Turning Torso consists of nine cubes with a total of 54 floors, where winding from base to peak is 90 degrees. Today, the Turning Torso is a residential building with 147 apartments of various sizes, from one-bedroom studios of 45 square metres to threes bedroom flats of 190 square meters. During the summer you have the opportunity to visit its top floor.
