'Dragon Tattoo' tours lure visitors to Stockholm
"I told them it didn't exist," says Stockholm tour guide Carin Christensen. But they headed to the train station anyway.
Then there's London banker Tom Laybourn, 27, who flew to Stockholm for only a day to take one of the walking tours that retrace Larsson's storylines through the city. And Phoebe Hollins, 22, a student from Melbourne, Australia, who chose Sweden for her semester abroad just because of the book.
Such is the pull of Larsson's bestselling Millennium trilogy — The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo , The Girl Who Played with Fire and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest — which has sold nearly 60 million copies in 44 languages.
PHOTOS: Stieg Larsson's StockholmEver since the publication of the first book in 2005, followed by the three Swedish movies, fans have flocked to Stockholm to see the locations where the story unfolds. And with a big Hollywood remake of Dragon Tattoo underway, starring Daniel Craig and directed by Oscar-nominee David Fincher ( The Social Network ), this waterside capital of 850,000 is bracing for a new onslaught.
"The Fincher film will increase tourism here, no doubt about it," says S ren Staermose, producer of the Swedish films and co-producer of the Hollywood version. "We were very happy that Fincher picked Sweden as the backdrop, that he would do a new interpretation of the story with a strong cultural identity."
Indeed, what Under the Tuscan Sun and A Year in Provence did for their respective locales, the dark, mysterious Millennium saga is doing for Stockholm.
Where to eat: Traditional Swedish cuisine features the bounty of the sea, especially herring (served many ways), salmon, oysters and crayfish, as well as meatballs, of course. The city boasts six Michelin-starred restaurants, including Lux Stockholm , beautifully located on the shores of Lake Mälaren. It serves contemporary Swedish and international cuisine. Appetizers (about $45 each) include baked duck egg with crispy duck skin and onion cream or herring, perch and pickled white asparagus, sorrel and salt crisp. Entrees (about $60 each) feature roasted duck liver-stuffed chicken with peas, summer truffles and herrgärd cheese. The veranda also serves a dinner of grilled meat or fish with veggies for about $70.Wooden Duck Boats - News
