Kungportsavenyn, or Avenyn as it is commonly known, is the big parade street in Gothenburg, which goes all the way from Kungportsplatsen up to Götaplatsen. Avenyn is packed with cafés, restaurants, pubs, nightclubs and shops. The City Library is located just below Götaplatsen. The small statue just outside is of the Swedish author Karin Boye (1900-1941). The walk is especially pleasant on a light summer's evening. There are several bus and tram stops along Avenyn; trams 3, 4, 5, 6 and 8 take you to Valand.
