Tourist Guide Helsingborg

Helsingborg, the second largest city in Skåne, is located on the south-western coast of Sweden. Known as the ‘Pearl of the Oresund’, this is Sweden’s closest entry point to Denmark and is situated on the northern side of the Oresund strait. The Landborgen ridge runs parallel to Helsingborg on the eastern side.
 
Helsingborg has a maritime temperate climate with mild winters, which result in occasional snowfall, and warm summers. This is due to Skåne being surrounded by the Kattegatt Sea, the Øresund and the Baltic Sea on its three sides. Winter is the best time to take in the beauty of the scenic coastal locales and rich heritage of Helsingborg.

With a population of about 1,23,000, Helsingborg is the country’s ninth largest municipality. The major industries are those of service, trade, transportation and tourism.
