Tourism in Sweden made up a relatively small part of the Swedish economy in 2011 at 2.9% of the country's GDP; at this time, tourism brought in 264 billion Swedish Krona, 98.8 billion of which was foreign visitor expenditure in Sweden. 7.1% of Swedish household income is spent on domestic tourism.[1]
Sweden is mostly visited by tourists from neighbouring countries such as Denmark, Norway and Finland; other source countries include Germany and the United Kingdom. Sweden's tourist sites include the Vasa Museum, the Millesgarden, and the World Heritage Site Drottningholm Palace Theatre; other tourist attractions include Sweden's art, literature, modernism and music (e.g., ABBA).
One tourist route is via train from southern to northern Sweden, viewing historical, natural and cultural attractions. This route is particularly popular among German tourists.
According to the CIA World Factbook, Sweden is the 21st most visited country in the world, with 7,627,000 arrivals in 2006.
