Temppeliaukio Church

Daniel2096

I went to the Rock Church and although €5 to enter totally worth it, such a beautiful scenery and just a lovely experience to be in such a place carved directly into the rock.

Helsinki Cathedral

小北在旅游

View: The Helsinki Cathedral is known for its white granite appearance and pale green dome, and its golden spire and pure white walls are visible from the sea, making it an outstanding example of neoclassical architecture. The magnificent spire of the church is 62 meters high and is a prominent feature of the city skyline, showing different beautiful scenery, both day and night. Cost-effective: Helsinki Cathedral is free to the public, making it a very cost-effective tourist attraction. Visitors can enter freely and enjoy the beautiful murals, sculptures and huge golden organ inside without paying any fees. View richness: the interior of the church is spacious and bright, with natural light spilling into the interior through huge windows, creating a stately and sacred atmosphere. In addition, the Senate Square in front of the church is the best place to appreciate neoclassical architecture and Finnish cultural activities. Cultural level: Helsinki Cathedral is not only a religious site, but also an important cultural heritage in Finland. Built in the early 19th century, it was designed to show Finland's cultural and religious independence to the Russian dominions of the time. So this church is not only a place for religious ceremonies, but also a symbol of Finnish national pride. Interesting: The Helsinki Cathedral has become an important place for visitors to explore Helsinki's history and culture due to its unique architectural style and rich cultural background. Artworks and regular concerts and cultural events within the church provide visitors with a rich cultural experience and fun. Overall, Helsinki Cathedral is a beautiful, culturally rich and interesting tourist destination, and is free to the public, with a high cost performance.

Sibelius Park

关裕年guanyunian

There is an inland park in Helsinki, Sibelius Park, named after the famous Finnish musician Sibelius. There is an inland lake in this place, with beautiful swans and seagulls. There are many visible natural scenery here, which is worth seeing. The rock church is very elegant and famous for its landscape design level, so many people come here to see the beautiful architecture instead of praying. This is why the rock church is the most famous. Many buildings are the same, as long as the design is thoughtful, it will be recognized by people.

SkyWheel Helsinki

ChiyiGrace

I really want to sit and experience it. This Ferris wheel is really big. It looks so beautiful at night. If you get up early in the morning, you can see the sunrise. The sun rises and shines. In winter, Helsinki is watching the Ferris Ferries, quietly drinking a cup of coffee and enjoying the night view of the sea. It is a good enjoyment.

Uspenski Cathedral

I'm amazed everytime I visit some old churches. And this was the best so far, This is located along the road Kanavatu, Helsinki. From Metro station i just walked around 17minutes to get here.

Kauppatori

The World Is Mine

I happened to visit there by chance and it felt quite strange. There weren't many people because of the cold weather and early hour, but if you visit on a nice day, you'll probably feel a unique sense of liveliness.
