"Compared to major metropolises, the beat of Helsinki is
laid-back and relaxed. Most of the city’s tourist attractions and hot spots are
within walking distance from each other. The public transport system is
comfortable and reliable, and has been ranked among the best in Europe.
GREEN CAPITAL
A third of Helsinki is covered in green areas. Along with a score of sports
grounds, they offer great possibilities for outdoor activities and relaxation,
such as Central Park and a number of forests just outside the city
centre.
The number of parks and waterside hangouts are ideal for a bit of
downshifting in the heart of the city. On the other hand, the score of urban
events, restaurants, bars and nightclubs make Helsinki a vibrant capital with
cultural offerings, ranging from punk rock to classical and modern art.
A MIX OF EAST AND WEST
Influences from both the East and the West are evident in everyday Helsinki;
architecture, cuisine, design, customs and even street slang all bare evidence
of a past under Russian and Swedish rule.
Situated by the Baltic Sea,
Helsinki’s shoreline is about 100 kilometres long and has about 300 islands.
Possessing a strong maritime heritage, it is said that the sea gave birth to
Helsinki and the harbours raised her.
