                               Gothenburg, Sweden


      The industrial port city of Gothenburg, on Sweden’s west coast, has little of the glamour that graces the country’s capital, Stockholm. But this once resolutely working-class city is nevertheless making a name for itself as a new hive of the creative arts, with its homegrown fashion labels and upstart indie bands, its jovial craft beer bars and alternative arts scene. Gothenburg (Goteborg in Swedish) is also the fitting host to Scandinavia’s leading film festival and hugely popular music festivals. These days, the cool cultural revival happening in Sweden’s second-largest city appears well under way.

      Those who like coffee cannot miss Bar Centro, a small coffee shop where the espresso is made to high Italian standards and patrons often linger on the stoop and curb outside. Then there are the charming cobblestone streets of the historic Haga neighborhood, which is peppered with classic Swedish cafes that sell absurdly oversize kanelbullar (cinnamon buns) known as Hagabullar.

  • ... used to: habit in the past

    ...(be) used to: habit in the present

  • O texto fala que Gotemburgo era "resolutely working-class city" e agora ela está se tornando um "new hive of the creative arts", mas isso significa que ela deixou de ser uma "working-class city"? Se "Gothenburg used to be a working-class city." for verdadeiro significa dizer que a cidade deixou de ser da classe trabalhadora e para mim isso é extrapolar.
