Daughter of the Baltic
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.Explore hidden gems such as Seurasaari Island and Open-Air Museum and Room Escape Games. Venture out of the city with trips to Porvoo (Porvoo Old Town, Runeberg Park, & more), Ekenas Archipelago National Park (in Raseborg) and Kotka (Santalahti Nature Trail, Sapokka Water Garden, & more). Pack the 19th (Sun) with family-friendly diversions at Linnanmaki Amusement Park. There's much more to do: brush up on your military savvy at Sea Fortress Suomenlinna, take in the architecture and atmosphere at Rock Church, contemplate in the serene atmosphere at Uspenskin Cathedral (Uspenskin Katedraali), and explore the world behind art at Kansallisgalleria.
