About Helsinki

Helsinki, the capital of Finland, offers a blend of modernity and tradition, making it an interesting destination to explore. One of the must-see landmarks is the iconic Helsinki Cathedral, known for its striking white façade and green dome. The nearby Senate Square is an important historical site where you can appreciate the architectural harmony of the surrounding buildings.

For those interested in cultural experiences, the Ateneum Art Museum houses an impressive collection of Finnish art, while the Kiasma Museum focuses on contemporary art and design. A visit to the Market Square provides a taste of local life, where you can find fresh produce, handicrafts, and traditional Finnish foods.

Exploring the archipelago is also a rewarding experience. Taking a ferry to the nearby islands, such as Suomenlinna, which is a UNESCO World Heritage site, allows you to wander through historical fortifications and enjoy scenic views of the sea.

The design district is another highlight, showcasing Finland's rich design heritage with various boutiques, galleries, and cafés. Here, you can discover unique Finnish design items and perhaps even visit the Design Museum to gain insight into the evolution of Finnish aesthetics.

For a more relaxed experience, the Esplanadi Park offers a pleasant green space to unwind amidst the hustle and bustle of the city. It is a popular spot for both locals and visitors to enjoy picnics, outdoor concerts, and seasonal markets.

Lastly, the sauna culture is an essential part of Finnish life. Visiting a traditional public sauna, such as Löyly or Kotiharjun Sauna, provides an authentic experience of this cherished national pastime. Engaging in a sauna session can be a soothing way to end a day of exploration in Helsinki.
