Sergel’s Square is an interesting place that is as far from the intimate bedroom as we can get. The place is visited by a wide mix of people, is located in the middle of the city and has a special urban atmosphere. Sergel’s square is a hub in the production community. To make a place for rest right where the sun’s rays break down through the water of the fountain, and you need to stop to be able to experience and take in that magic.
