Celebrating Finland's greatest composer, the Sibelius Monument in the Sibelius Park on the edge of Helsinki was designed and installed, after a competition, by Ella Hiltunen with 600 carved cylinders representing both organ pipes and silver birch trees, the national tree of Finland. For music lovers, this is an essential place to visit, even in the rain as on the day we were there.
