The final site for the travelling exhibition Kide, itself the beating heart of the nine city joint Capitals of Culture year of 2000. Helsinki’s theme was “Knowledge, technology and the future”. Read more

Very modern and brand new looking "old city" centre :) Also here is one of the largest & building-free old square I've ever seen :)

Central square of the city, often decorated or used for events, then really nice, otherwise just big. But good for watching other people. Very nice restaurants nearby!

The Sound of the square is heard every day at 17.49 throughout the year. The best place to hear it is to listen at Emperor Alexander's statue. The Sound runs for 5 minutes and 18 seconds.

Try the Finnish thing and sit on the stairs enjoying wine or beer in a good company in late summer nights!

The main square in town. Avoid paying money to visit the church, better outside than inside.

The most beautiful old square in Finland!

The central square where you can find people resting and taking photos of the cathedral.

Large square in the city center
Natalia PekkerFebruary 23, 2016
Можно полюбоваться огромным Кафедральным собором и памятником Александру II. Очень популярное место для фотографий :)
Аннушка ЛукашоваSeptember 4, 2016
Собор находится на возвышении, от этого кажется ещё более величественным. Учитывая, что Хельсинки не очень богаты на "что посмотреть", советую начинать осмотр города отсюда
Helga VanchikovaApril 29, 2018
Открывается отличный вид на город, если поднимитесь на ступеньки. Также можно словить достойные виды с чайками
ConstantineJune 15, 2014
Как уже было сказано, вид действительно отличный! Плюс, по выходным здесь устраивают форум: можно попробовать еды, посмотреть ремесла и послушать музыку. Привет из Казахстана!

Площадь с отличным видом на столичный Кафедральный собор. От центра можно добраться на 4, 6 и 9 трамваях. Всем русским лучей добра и приятного времяпровождения.
Natalia PekkerFebruary 23, 2016
Маленькая и скромная центральная площадь, окруженная зданиями в стиле позднего классицизма (очень популярного в Санкт-Петербурге).

Обязательно посмотреть на голову главной статуи в центре, там рабочее место главной чайки. Если ее нет- быть беде! 🙀А на 5- ой сверху ступеньке надо желание загадывать! 👏👏👏

Бесплатная рождественская карусель. Очередь большая, но движется быстро. Очень вкусные бургеры от KOLMON3N
Alex TokarevJune 24, 2015
главная и красивейшая площадь хельсинки. перед посещением нужно почитать в википедии про Карла Энгеля и про роль Александра II в истории этой страны.
