🇫🇮 Helsinki CityWalk Express Guide 🚶

Helsinki is a compact city perfect for exploring on foot, but to truly experience the charm of trams gliding through its historic streets, grab an AB zone Day Ticket on the HSL app 🎫🚋. Combining public transport with walking saves time and energy—and trust me, the views along the way are absolutely captivating! 💗 📍 1. Amos Rex Art Museum 🏛️ Known as one of the world’s most architecturally striking buildings. Both the interior and exterior are Instagram-worthy! 🎫 €20 📍 2. Helsinki Central Station 🚉 Even the train station is worth a visit! Its retro design is often called a “living antique of Nordic style.” 📍 3. Helsinki Cathedral ⛪ A stunning neoclassical white church with a statue of Alexander II in front. Climb the steps for a panoramic view of the city! 🎫 €5 📍 4. Uspenski Orthodox Cathedral 🧡 A reflection of Finland’s historical ties with Russia, this Eastern Orthodox church stands proudly over the city. 📍 5. Helsinki Senate Square 🏟️ Often confused with the Market Square, but this is where you’ll find lively stalls and a view of ferries heading to Estonia and Stockholm! ⛴️ 📍 6. Temppeliaukio Church (Rock Church) 🪦 Carved directly into solid rock, with a stunning copper dome and raw stone walls. A truly unique architectural gem. 🎫 €8 📍 7. St. John’s Church 🌳 A Lutheran church partly hidden by trees. The surrounding street is packed with vintage and antique shops—well worth a visit! 🛍️ 📍 8. Sibelius Monument 🎶 A shimmering sculpture made of over 600 steel pipes, resembling a grand organ—a tribute to Finland’s beloved composer. Founded in 1550, Helsinki is filled with beauty best discovered not by rushing, but by wandering—through its streets, waiting at a tram stop, sipping coffee in a square ☕️. Some spots aren’t listed not because they’re less famous, but because this city asks you to slow down and feel. #Finland #StudyInFinland #DayTrip #LifeInFinland #MissTravelEveryday #CulturalSites #Helsinki #CityWalk #NordicDesign
