The national Museum of World Culture opened in Gothenburg, Sweden, in 2004. Its aim is to interpret the subject of world culture in an interdisciplinary way. The museum is situated next to the Universeum science centre and the amusement park Liseberg, and close to Korsvägen.[1] "The museum interprets the concept of world culture in a dynamic and open-ended manner. On the one hand, various cultures are incorporating impulses from each other and becoming more alike. On the other hand, local, national, ethnic and gender differences are shaping much of that process. World culture is not only about communication, reciprocity, and interdependence, but the specificity, concretion and uniqueness of each and every individual." (From the background info on the museums homepage.)

Haga is within easy walking distance of the city centre, but if you're going by tram you can get off at either the Haga kyrka or Järntorget. The main street is called Haga Nygata and stretches from Vasastan in one end to Linnaeus in the other.
Shopping and refreshments goes perfectly and one is not as fun without the other. Haga lends itself perfectly for the perfect occasion. Shopping is varied, ranging from the hat shop Stiernglans to toy shop Little Karin and marzipan producer Bräutigams and more. There are several fine home furnishing stores along Haga Nygata, while shopping for clothes, antiques, tea, spices and olive oil. In short, there is a little of each, but it's small-scale and unique that applies because many stores are only available right here.

Masthugget Church (Swedish: Masthuggskyrkan) was built in 1914. Its position on a high hill (Masthugget) close to the city and near the Göta älv makes it a striking sight – the church tower is 60 m (200 ft) high in itself. The church represents the national romantic style in Nordic architecture and was designed by Sigfrid Ericson. The church, which has become one of the symbols of Gothenburg, is a popular tourist attraction.
