Enkoeping

Lakeside town in Uppsala County, Sweden, known as "Sweden's nearest city" — a slogan coined in 1965 — Enköping sits close to the northern shore of Lake Mälaren and has built a reputation around its parks, with more than two dozen green spaces earning it the informal title "City of Parks." The walkable centre has a good spread of cafés and restaurants, and the surrounding area offers scenic viewpoints and proximity to several UNESCO World Heritage sites in the wider region.
