  Another must see when visiting Helsinki. The architecture of the building is stunning, the infra-structure very impressive. So many options, tools, and activities available to locals, so they can really enjoy. I was also impressed by the rooms that are available for meetings and presentations. The views from the top floor and terrace are remarkable.

  Interesting place with loaded possibilities for lot of activities. And yes there is an actual library on the upper floor. Best thing is that all is free you just need an library card. This building and concept was built to honour Finland's 100th independence anniversary. Quite a gift from government and city to the people of Finland. Quite proud of it actually and it has been a smashing success. Over 2,5 million visits already in September 2019 when the prediction was 2 million in the first year.
