In this video I explore the good and the bad sides of Malmö. There's a lot ot like in the city - such as the marvelous skyscraper Turning Torso, or the Öresund Bridge that connects Sweden and Denmark, or popular spots like Möllevångstorget. It's also the place where Zlatan Ibrahimovic grew up - something that the Malmö people are quite proud of.

But it's also a place of crime, racism, segregation and riots. The area called Rosengård is particularly marked as a no-go zone in Malmö. But is it really as bad as people say? I decided to have a walk around and see for myself.

Malmö is also in the spotlight for hosting the Eurovision Song Contest 2024, something that will happen in May 2024. And it's also famous for quirky museums like the Disgusting Food Museum. Aside from all of that I also dive into the history of Malmö, and how it started as a small Danish village and quickly grew in size and significance after the 1600s and the 1700s.

And let's not forget Malmö Castle, Malmöhus slott, or the first Non-Violence Statue that can also be found in Malmö. And there's a lot more - breweries, Sherlock Holmes pubs, and other interesting sights.

There's definitely a lot of bad in Malmö. But there's a lot of good as well.
