    Nice weather. Feel like an outdoor museum, informative narrations provided nearby towers and wall. An amazing combination between the preserved inner town and the shopping malls/ outlets outside the walls.

    It's like they build a beautiful European village inside a castle. I loved walking around the alleys and enjoyed local shops and restaurants and cafe and overall vibes.

    The walls are in great shape. Once a year Visby hosts an excellent medieval fair within these walls, one of the largest I ever seen.

    One of the best historical place i've seen. From the the port it took 20 minutes walking distance until you reach the visby wall. Visby wall is a medieval defensive wall surrounding. Visby is a town on the Swedish island of Gotland in the Baltic Sea. It's known for its well-preserved town wall, a medieval fortification incorporating defensive towers. The town's many churches include the grand, centuries-old St. Mary's Cathedral and the medieval ruins of St. Nicolai and St. Karin.

    Visby was a great place to visit. Full of history and wonderful photo opportunities. I only wish I had more than 24 hours there.

    The earliest history of Visby is uncertain, but it is known to have been a centre of merchandise around 900 AD. It was inhabited as early as the Stone Age, probably because of the access to fresh water and a natural harbour. In the 12th century, Visby Cathedral, dedicated to Saint Mary, was constructed.

    Nice place to visit but to see it all, hire a taxi or bike so you can stop where you want not a tour bus like we did

    It’s amazing how the town wall is still preserved and you can feel the town within preserved in the medieval era too. It’s a nice stroll around the town wall and it is really lovely to see all the houses well preserved along the way. Surely there are places where you can see some houses have their backyards attached to this wall. But is impressive to see how well it is still standing.
