The sculpture Crystal — vertical accent in glass and steel by Edvin Öhrström is the dominant feature of Sergelstorg, the heart of the City. Chances are that you will pass a lot of times by this square while sightseeing around downtown since it's the main commuting hub of the Greater Stockholm Area. During different months (that I currently do not remember, but I'm tempted to say June/July) the square is filled with food trucks/stands where you can buy food from different countries. For example, you can have Australia with kangaroo and alligator steaks or France with a kind of snail in a silly French name like, Kébab à la sauce inspirée par le parfum d'un été aigre-doux and, of course, Unitedstatian hotdogs, burgers, etc. I think it's a bit expensive but hey, I want to see you paying for the trip to Australia in order to try a alligator burger, lol.

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.

Rainy day at Hötorget
Hötorget is a public square in downtown Stockholm, you can visit it via T-centralen or Hötorget tunnelbana stations (a piece of trivia: in both stations Madonna recorded part of her «Ray of light» video). The square is fairly big, it has one of the biggest open-air public fruit/vegetables market in the whole Greater Stockholm area. There it is also a major cultural hub with hundreds of bars, pubs, restaurants, stores and many many events through out the year. A must-visit location if you are ever in the City.

Afternoon at Liljeholmstorget
In Stockholm, it's very common to find little markets outside the tunnelbana (subway) stations. In these little markets you can often find better offers in fruits and vegetables than in big stores and, usually, part of the produce (mostly berries, potatoes and mushrooms, among others) comes from local Swedish farms. This particular square is located outside Liljeholmen tunnelbanestation in Liljeholmen, a very nice Stockholm neighborhood.
