As mentioned, Gamla Stan is the island on which the Royal Palace is located, the soul of the city one may say. Land was scarce around the Castle and other governmental, religious and military buildings thus the buildings tend to be very closed together having as a result this particular narrow streets.

City Library
This is (actually, the back of) the city's Main Library building. The architecture is, to my taste, quite boring for a library. Call me crazy, but I think a library building should always have columns; always! I said. Its interior, par contre, is way better than its exterior and it's worth the visit. I guess I get it: sure, uggly building, nice interior. Kind of «don't judge a book by its cover», thank you for the moral Mr. Asplund =P

Towards Fatbursparken
When you come out Stockholms södra station you have the option to walk North, towards Medborgarplatsen, and pass through Fatbursparken. It's a very nice urban park where you could have a nice picknick/lunch on the grass or under the trees shadows.
