What awaits you
Helsinki yesterday and today I will guide you through the main streets of the city and show you all the most popular sights, tell you about the daily life of Helsinki and help you feel the interesting, deep and multifaceted nature of the Finnish capital. You will see a "cultural triangle" consisting of the House of Music, the modern public library Oodi and the innovative Amos Rex art museum. You will also walk along the "spiritual triangle", which includes the most important metropolitan churches: the Cathedral of St. Nicholas, the Orthodox Assumption Cathedral and the church in the Temppeliaukio rock
The most interesting about residential areas You will see not only the old city center and iconic tourist places, but, if you wish, also modern residential areas: Ruoholahti, which is called the "local Venice", or Arabia with an oriental flavor of the 19th century, or Pasila, a fast-growing area famous for a grandiose complex under construction. "Triple" and concrete fashion trends of the 80s. If you wish, we will look into courtyards, park gardens and existing educational institutions and medical institutions.
