''Stockholms södra station'' is a commuter railway station. Several metro stations and bus lines, with '''Slussen''' [ˈslɵsən] being the busiest station, as well as several bus lines. Connected to [[Stockholm/Kungsholmen|Kungsholmen]] by the scenic '''Västerbron''' ("Western Bridge"), as well as [[Stockholm/Gamla Stan|the Old Town]] to the north and [[Stockholm/Söderort|Söderort]] to the south.
Line 21:
Most of Södermalm is walkable, and well served by public transportation. Until 2025, the traffic hub at Slussen is being rebuilt, with rerouting of traffic, including pedestrians. Passages around Slussen can be congested during daytime.

Line 27:
Until the 19th century, Södermalm was mainly a farmland to support Stockholm. As the railway was built in 1860, Södermalm became an industrial district with homes for the working class. As the industries were displaced by offices in the 20th century, the island began to gentrify, and now has some of the most fashionable neighbourhoods in Stockholm.
In the 21st century, Södermalm gained recognition from the ''[[Millennium Tour|Millennium series by Stieg Larsson]]'', with many of the locations of the books and film open for visitors, in particular [[Södermalm heights tour|the northern waterfront ridge, "Söders höjder"]], where many 18th and 19th century buildings remain. At times called "Stockholm's [[Montmartre]]", the island has also earned a reputation of "hipness", making [http://www.ft.com/intl/cms/s/2/e4f47a04-6972-11e3-89ce-00144feabdc0.html#axzz2poUbQLxB Financial Times' top list of destinations for 2014] and [http://www.vogue.com/slideshow/1080625/fifteen-coolest-street-style-neighborhoods/ third place on Vogue's list of the world's coolest neighbourhoods]{{Dead link|date=January 2023 |bot=InternetArchiveBot }}.
'''[http://www.hammarbysjostad.se/?lang=en Hammarby Sjöstad]''' is formally a part of Södermalm, the only bit not on the main island. Since the late 1990s, there has been construction on the former docks and small industrial estates after extensive cleanup. The Sjöstad ("city on the lake") was planned from the outset to be a model community for sustainable living and design, including many innovative features in its infrastructure and architecture that limit the quarter's impact on the environment and provide for a better quality of life; see also [[Stockholm environmentalist tour]].

The 2½-km walk around the lake is magnificent. At the half-grass half-sand beach, the water temperatures are quite high in the summers, when many are bathing in the safe, clear water. If you are visiting in winter, don't miss the hill about half way through the walk which allows [[sledding]], when the snow is thick. At summer, you can also do some [[fishing]] with the locals, if you ask the fishing club for permission. There are two ice-cream shops, one at the beach and one at the entrance of the lake. A small café serving hot food is located about a quarter of the way round the lake.
