I had 7 hours layover time in Helsinki on my way returning from Moscow to the States. This trip is a hidden gem for a great city tour to see highlights of Helsinki, including Helsinki Cathedral, Uspenski Cathedral, Esplanadi park and Kauppatori. The most memorable experience of my trip is attending Sunday morning service at Temppeliaukio Kirkko. Even though I can only stay for the first 15 mins due to my tight schedule, it is a wonderful experience to enjoy heavenly music in the church of the rock!!!
