9 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.

Venture out of the city with trips to Valvilla Factory Museum (in Hyvinkaa), Porvoo Old Town (in Porvoo) and Holy Cross Church (in Parola). Pack the 24th (Mon) with family-friendly diversions at Linnanmaki Amusement Park. There's still lots to do: take in the spiritual surroundings of Rock Church, tour the pleasant surroundings at Sibelius Monument, explore the world behind art at Kansallisgalleria, and get to know the fascinating history of The Esplanadi Park.
