“A lot of people like to visit Suomenlinna sea fortress when they visit Helsinki. It's a historical island with a number of old military structures and wooden houses.

It is not spectacularly beautiful but it has a totally different ambience than the center of the city.”

“A visit to Kiasma is worth every visit. If the exhibitions do not light up, the atmosphere and architecture of the building will always be enjoyable - and at least one or two interesting works or new acquaintances will usually be on display.
