| Malmö
is the commercial centre of southern Sweden and an international
city. This is expressed, not least, by the fact that Malmö
has almost 265.000 residents who speak some 100 languages and
belong to 164 different nationalities. Malmö is known in
Sweden as the City of parks and there are a lot of them, the largest
two being Pildammsparken and Kungsparken. Since 2000 a bridge
called the Oresund Bridge on the southcoast of Sweden, near Malmö,
crosses the Öresund to Copenhagen. It was opened in 2000.
There are trains every 20 minutes connecting Malmö and Copenhagen
with connections to the Copenhagen Metro, inaugurated on Oct 19,
2002.
