I went to Stockholm for the first time in March 2012 and was blown away by a number of things - how cool the city is, how beautiful Swedes are, how great Swedish style is, how clean the streets are, how overpriced the taxis are, how every place should be built on an archipelago, how cripplingly expensive everything is and how impressive the metro system was.
As perfectly adequate London's tube system is, Stockholm's underground ran until way past midnight and looked like this - 90 of the 100 stations are relatively unsculpted with unique, natural architecture and exposed bedrock throughout the tunnels and platforms giving it the look of a striking, natural series of cave. I'd truly never seen anything like it.
