Today Birka is one of UNESCO's World Heritage Sites, going here is almost like travelling back in time.

Here at Björkö, in the middle of lake Mälaren, Birka town was based during the 750's and is today known as Sweden's first city. To this day there are visible traces of the people who were born, lived and died here.
