I know there are some people from Finland on here... and even though I am from Sweden and know Norway and Denmark very well, I realised I don't know that much about Finland.. now I am planning to visit Helsinki, and I wounder if anyone has some tips on what to see and where to visit... I just have 1.5 days.

Thanks in advance,
GG

Not from there but just walk around the city center and harbor. Lots of special architecture there (red brick churches, flat diamond church or something government buildings etc). also the old Olympic park up north of the station.

There is a ferry to a nearby island and fort which is worthwhile.

If you have more time, take the ferry to Tallin in for one day, old Town is preserved by UNESCO . very beautiful.

If you need more I have to delve into my pics to refresh memory
