Things to see

 

Helsinki has a fascinating history from its founding under Swedish rule, then passing through the Russian and finally into Finnish, so it's no surprise you can see influences of the different styles and eras through the architecture in the historic centre from neo-classical in the 18th century - many of the buildings are compared to those in St. Petersburg, old Leningrad and Moscow - to Art Nouveau in the 1900s, inspired by Kalevala, and Classicism of the 1920a.

 

Wander through the cobbled streets of Market Square and Senate Square in the Tori Quarter, or relax along Töölö Bay, where you'll find the Opera House. Marvel at the impressive Parliament buildings and the contrast in style between that and Finlandia Hall, proving Helsinki to be a beautiful blend of history through the ages.
