You're standing at the Vasa Museum, on the island of Djurgården in Stockholm. Look at the roof first. The stylised masts on that copper roof show the real height of the Vasa when she was fully rigged. Parts of the building are clad in wooden panels painted dark red, blue, tar black, ochre yellow and dark green.
