Must visit this UNESCO world heritage site of a fortress in Helsinki south harbor across several islands which was built by the Swedes in the 18th and 19th centuries to unsuccessfully prevent Russia from capturing Finland. It is a remarkable piece of engineering, architecture and history. Visit the several museums on the connected islands. There are also fortifications, barracks, residences (people live there full time), church, workshops, shops, cafes and restaurants. You will need at least half a day to visit and will take a 15 minute scenic ferry ride starting at Market Square but the ferry convenienty runs all day starting very early and ending late in the evening because people live there. Children who are into forts and guns will enjoy. Younger children will have the chance to run around to their hearts content.

The very heart of central Helsinki and a very evocative park it is. I live nearby and often pass through it on my way to the shops, or just walk down it when the weather is good. Very clean, well manicured, with lots of benches as well as frequent free musical exhibitions on the covered stage at one end.

This cathedral for me was the most beautiful architecture, the largest orthodox cathedral in Western Europe, the golden Coppola, the contrast of the red brick with the green is amazing, inside is so beautiful too.

We visited Winter World for the day as part of our cruise excursion and we loved every minute of it. Winter World provide you with all the gear to ensure you are not cold and a free shot of flavoured vodka upon arrival from the Ice Bar. Our ticket included a husky sled ride - which we didn’t realise - and this was fantastic! The dogs were so lovely, and super excited to run, and the experience was great! There are lots of other activities to do also and the ice slide is fabulous! We had an hour here as part of our day and we loved every second of it!

We visited this 127-year-old garden on 31 October. We were surprised the roses were still in full bloom in the Rose Garden in front of the Winter Garden. The autumn has been exceptionally warm. The garden is best known for its glass building that has three parts: a palm room, a cactus room, and a west wing. Here you can experience the greenery also during the winter months. The entrance is free.
