Helsinki is the capital of Finland.

The lively city in the north of Europe has a lot to offer: With its many saunas, beautiful islands and large green parks, Helsinki is truly worth seeing. During your trip you will experience true hospitality and very relaxed and happy Finns.

Helsinki Cathedral is the city's landmark and a popular sight in Helsinki. It can be seen from all corners of the city and is always a good orientation point. The port of Helsinki is close by. From there, ferries leave for Lonna Island (Lonna Restaurant & Sauna), Vallisaari Island (art and nature) and Suomenlinna (UNESCO heritage and very popular). If you like island hopping, this is the place to be.

You can eat delicious food everywhere in the city. Helsinki's restaurants serve a lot of fish. But also other traditional Finnish dishes mixed with international influences.

A visit to a sauna is a must. Whether you're young or old, in Finland the sauna is part of the culture and everyday life. Here people chat, drink and bathe in the lake in the icy cold.

And why are Finns the happiest people in the world? It's a way of life. You'll definitely feel what we mean when you're there. We hope you enjoy your trip to Helsinki and our video: Helsinki in 5 minutes.
