The third largest city in Sweden, MALMO , won back for Sweden from Denmark by Karl X in the seventeenth century, was a handsome city then and is now, with a cobbled medieval core that has a lived-in, workaday feel worlds apart from the museum-piece quality of most other Swedish town centres. With the opening in 2000 of the Oresund Link , a sensational seventeen-kilometre-long road and rail bridge, Malmo really is the Swedish gateway from continental Europe, and after years in the doldrums after the failure of much of its industry, it is enjoying a revival, and is as lively and up-beat as ever for travellers wanting to find a cosmopolitan Swedish city outside the capital.
