Neighborhoods & Around
By itself, Sundborn is a small village with just a handful of things to see and do. The nearest populated center is Falun to the southwest, a town whose growth was due to an old copper mine which was operational as early as the 11th century. Today, with the mine at last depleted, it has become a tourist attraction and UNESCO World Heritage Site, with accompanying museum. The red color of the copper was used to make a brownish red paint that has become hugely popular in Sweden, known as Falu Red Paint or Falu rodfarg. It is used to paint the traditional Falu red wooden cottage with white corners that have become so iconic to the region.
Borlange is the most populous city in the province with all the shopping, dining, and entertainment comforts of your average-sized Swedish City, while Stockholm is the nearest major city (about 3 hours southeast by road).
