15 days in Helsinki Itinerary

Finland's largest and most populated metropolis, the maritime town of Helsinki boasts varied architecture, a lively cafe culture, and plethora of picturesque natural delights.

Get some cultural insight at Sea Fortress Suomenlinna and Katajanokka. You'll explore the less-touristy side of things at Seurasaari Island and Open-Air Museum and Hakaniemi Market. Venture out of the city with trips to Jarvenpaan Taidemuseo (in Jarvenpaa), Hanko (Bellevue Beach & Tulliniemi Nature Path) and Pernio (Teijo National Park & Ruukin kehräämö ja puoti Oy). Spend the 6th (Thu) exploring nature at Ekenas Archipelago National Park. Spend the 13th (Thu) exploring nature at Sipoonkorven Kansallispuisto. There's still lots to do: examine the collection at Mannerheim Museum, stroll through Beach Mansikkalahti, get a new perspective on nature at Natural History Museum (Luonnontieteellinen Museo), and look for all kinds of wild species at Hiidenvuori.
