Kungsportsavenyn
The main tree-lined avenue known to locals as 'Avenyn', lined with restaurants, bars and terraces.
The avenue is about 1 km long, running from Kungsportsplatsen by the canal to Götaplatsen. Built in the 19th century, it is lined with neoclassical and Art Nouveau buildings and is now Gothenburg's liveliest dining and nightlife district, with cafés filling their terraces in summer. At the north end, Kungsportsplatsen connects to the canal sightseeing boat docks, and at the south end the avenue reaches Götaplatsen. Along the way, you can wander into Vasastan and the Röhsska Museum. It's ideal for an evening stroll.
