About the sound
In Stockholm there is a large field where people come and relax, and do sports. It it also the host of many different events, such as an annual kite flying event. There is also pastures with horses here, even though it is just five to ten minutes with a buss from the central station in Stockholm. Up until 1994 the field was also home to the Royal Sheep who walked here. It is a bit of a rural oasis in the middle of Stockholm.
