#Helsinki is situated at the northeastern edge of the Baltic Sea between Sweden and Russia, drawing influence from both Western and Eastern European traditions.

Begin your #vacation #sightseeing. #Visit Suomenlinna Fortress which has protected the Gulf of Finland for almost 300 years. #Explore the many museums and galleries across the city, including the Helsinki Design Museum, featuring a permanent exhibition for great moments of Finnish design.

See a theatrical or musical production at Finlandia Hall or the Helsinki Music Centre. Helsinki Cathedral is a breathtaking whitewashed structure towering above the rest of the city. Uspenski Cathedral is built with dark bricks; it is powerfully conspicuous as it rises from the surrounding white granite of the Katajanokka district.

It’s not the sights alone that lure visitors from all over the world, it’s the people. See for yourself why Helsinki’s long-held reputation is that of one of the world’s happiest places.

For now, we hope you enjoy watching this #travel #guide as much as we enjoyed making it.
