Nothing wrong with sightseeing per se.

On the other hand, these tours obviously are arranged by young Marxist intellectuals who rebel against their upper class upbringing through selling tours to other confused leftists - mostly coming from the same kind of upper class/upper middle class environment they do.

Anyhow, some nice homes in Sweden's capital:

Those houses indeed are attractive, but they don't stand up well against these Swedish homes (mansions in the regions of Skåne/Scania, Södermanland and Uppland. Most of these magnificent buildings are privately owned, although a certain few of them are not):

Wish to explore what Swedish neighborhoods look like without supporting Socialism?

Very cool interactive map.

Just finished the first and second Millenium novels, and one set of my greatgrandparents were from Sweden (near Karlstadt; near Lenhovda)

What would be lower class areas, a middle class areas, and an upper class areas in Sweden?
