The Fyris River divides the city into the historic and modern sides of the city, each one with their own unique culture and sights to see. The area features fairly cool weather year-round, with temperatures in the 30's Fahrenheit from November-April and May-October seeing temperatures in the 40's and 50's Fahrenheit. The best time to visit it from May-July when temperatures are at their highest and there's plenty of sunshine.
Sights
The city is divided into two sections by the Fyris River, with the historic side on the west and the residential and commercial side on the east. The majority of sights to see are on the west side of the river, where you'll find the famous Uppsala Cathedral. The huge Cathedral was built in the 13th century and is the largest church in Scandinavia. After wandering through the Cathedral, head to the Uppsala Castle that was built in the 16th century. Inside the Castle, you'll find large halls with paintings and other artifacts, along with the local art museum. While in the city, be sure to check out the Universities and their libraries; the Uppsala University was founded in 1477, making it the oldest university in Scandinavia and features stunning architecture.

On the last day of April every year, they host the Valborg Celebrations when people spend the day outside, drinking champagne, and singing by the castle. If you're not around during one of the festivals, you can still enjoy the culture on a boat trip along the Fyris River which takes you to Lake Eklon and past the castle.
