Malmo's skyline is particularly interesting and quiet bizarre, since the city is filled with some unusual buildings, like the impossible-to-miss Turning Torso tower, which curls its way high into the sky.

Within the Gamla Stan you can find three noteworthy squares: the Big Square (also known as Stortorget), the Little Square (which the charning name Lilla Torg) and Gustav Adolfs Square.
