Top 10 Best Looking Metro Stations in the Stockholm Metro

This metro station is insanely stunning. The flooring and coloring are so gorgeous that the last thing I expected it to be used for is a metro station. It's colorful and stunningly beautiful. Kungsträdgården (literally the King's Garden in English) is a station on the Stockholm Metro located on the blue line, inside Stockholm, and interestingly enough, the deepest station of the metro system so far.

The flooring looks like something you'd see in a store with its amazing terrazzo material, featuring lots of green, white, and red lines. The pillars have the same coloring. The bedrock on the opposite wall at the rails and the ceiling has been colored green, creating a stunning look. Combined with the normal grey bedrock on the opposite side of the rails, it becomes excellent!

This is just the platform. Towards the escalators, you are met with a majestic entrance/exit as the corridor becomes a round tunnel, and the patterns on the ceiling look great. On top of that, when you walk into the tunnel, you can see small museum courtyards with relics saved from buildings pulled down during the redevelopment of Stockholm City in the 60s.

This is a relatively easy station to get to. It's located on the eastern end of the blue line, just next to T-Centralen. Most of the blue line stations are located outside of the city, but this is a city station. You can either take the blue line T-Centralen metro that goes there within minutes or, if you live in Stockholm, you just locate it. I've actually been here a few times. The latest was with school on a field trip to Stockholm, Skansen. It's the most stunning metro station easily. This is definitely the king's garden.

In terms of colors, Solna Centrum bears a few resemblances to Kungsträdgården. Both have green and red, although in darker shades. It doesn't look nearly as fascinating, but it's stunning enough to make it to the #2 spot on the list. It looks very, very nice.

This is another station in which bedrock makes up the majority of the platform, apart from the floor. The ceiling and upper half of the walls are colored blood-red. The lower half of the walls has either green or black colors depending on where you are. At the escalators, it's black. The station has been nicknamed "the gateway to hell" because of the colors. It's pretty beautiful, though, because it's not just colors tossed in. There are even small houses at the escalators painted on the black part of the wall. On the green parts of the wall, there are trees and lumber workers painted, which look pretty nice.

This station is located on the Akalla line, which belongs to the blue line. This station is not located in Stockholm city but in the suburb of Solna. Fun fact: this is the city where I was technically born because Karolinska Sjukhuset (the hospital in this city) is located here.

Stadion is certainly a happy-looking station. It's very beautiful. The platform floor may not be anything noteworthy, but the ceiling and walls are. The bedrock has been colored sky blue with a sky theme, and there's a rainbow painted in the tunnel to the platform. That looks amazing to me personally and really brings this station high up on this list.

Stadion is located on the north part of the Red Line between Universitetet and Östermalmstorg, one of the richer areas of Stockholm, on the Mörby Centrum line. I've never actually been on the platform, but I've passed by it a few times as a kid when we were going to Bergshamra (which is where I used to live as a very young child). Very nice looking indeed.

This is a gorgeous one, definitely. A top-five-worthy contender in my opinion. This station, in a way, bears some similarities to Solna Centrum in that there's a lot of red, it's made of bedrock, and both are located on the blue line. Although this one is more in Stockholm City, the platform and station look a bit different.

This station is made of just one color - a very stunning one. It's red but looks more orange due to its rustiness. It just looks amazing with the rusty color. This isn't the only station to do this, though. Rinkeby, located on the far west of the Hjulsta line, is also part of the blue line.

T-Centralen is the main hub of not only the Stockholm metro but, in a way, for other trains as well. It's the busiest station in the entire metro system and the only station where all three lines (green, red, and blue) meet. Each line has a different platform in the station. While the green and red lines' platforms are generally basic, if you go deeper to the blue line, it's a much better and more beautiful platform.

The bedrock is sea blue combined with grey on the ceiling, with tons of blue olive branches crossing the ceiling and walls. It looks spectacular. Due to this, I also think it's one of the creepier-looking stations, in a good way.

I've actually been here once. It was in sixth grade when we had a field trip to Stockholm. We got to Stockholm by train and then took the metro from T-Centralen to Kungsträdgården. Nice memories indeed.

One of the brightest-looking stations in the Stockholm metro, the main color of this station is white. It feels super natural. Nature is a theme in this station, with painted grass, animals, trees, and even bird statues on a wall. I've heard it's supposed to symbolize equality, which I think is great personally.

One thing that particularly catches my eye is the big blue circle on the ceiling of the tunnel that leads to the platform. That looks incredibly beautiful in my opinion. This is one of the most unique Stockholm metro stations, in my opinion, because of how different it is from the rest.

If you grew up with retro games, this is definitely a metro station for you. Thorildsplan, a station on the green line at the edge of Stockholm City, is the only station on this list to be above ground and the only one in the Stockholm metro with retro art. The walls are made of small squares, each a pixel, which is a genius idea for a metro station. It's amazing. That's why this is the only above-ground station on this list that I think looks pretty good.

Why isn't this higher? While it's a creative concept, it doesn't look as stunning since most of the platform is just a bright blue with pixelated elements here and there. It looks best when bedrock is colored, while this is just small slabs. But the originality of this one ensures it stays on the list.

This is a not-too-talked-about station when it comes to the art, which is sad because, in my opinion, this is one of the top ten best-looking stations in the Stockholm metro. Cave stations are the best-looking stations, and this is no exception. This one looks so stunning!

You know what I said about how nice the colors were in Kungsträdgården station? Well, frankly, I'd say the same here. It's not the same colors but similar, with a more shiny and polished look. The layout isn't anything like Kungsträdgården, which is why it's a lot lower than that station. The floor is a bit uninteresting, but the ceiling and walls made of bedrock are really nice. That shiny green-blue color just looks amazing. Combined with some other elements, like the red and yellow banner that runs along the bedrock walls, this looks incredible.

It's located on the blue line, like many stations here (the blue line really has some nice stations), on the Hjulsata line, but it's a lot closer to the city than Hjulsta. I've never been here, but it would be a cool station to explore.

This is a southern station located on the Norsborg line, which is part of the red line. This is one of the most southern stations on the map. It's also one of the few stations located in southern Stockholm that I think looks pretty nice overall.

It reminds me of Huvudsta station in terms of the colors. The ceiling and walls are made of painted bedrock, and I love the green color. It's not green-blue like in Huvudsta, but just real green. It's super shiny and looks like crystals. Combined with some blue and red circle-like paintings on the bedrock, it looks majestic. I think Huvudsta is a bit better because I prefer the shiny look and the flooring there is better as well. This is still top ten worthy.

As of 2019, this is the northernmost station in the Stockholm Metro, located in the Akalla suburb. It's a blue line station located at the end of the Akalla line, which, yes, makes Akalla an end station much like Kungsträdgården, Mörby Centrum, Farsta Strand, etc.

The most notable feature is the tan-yellow bedrock. It looks so unique and different from the rest of the station and is very, very bright. It gives it its distinct feature, and I really like it. Not much else to say here.
