Holidays to Helsinki
Helsinki is well worth a visit. Especially in the summer when Finland’s capital enjoys up to 19 hours of sunshine a day. The Finns really make the most of these welcomed months – free live music parties and festivals are the norm. The streets are filled with stalls and outdoor cafes! The best summer festival is Juhannus, during the midsummer months. Set on the waterfront on the southern coast of Finland, Helsinki is one of the most popular city breaks in the world. Fleetway Travel can book you great cheap deals to Helsinki, whether they be last minute or just a cheap holiday.
Some of the best day trips in the city are just a stones throw away from the city centre. To get around take the 3T tram. Cheap, easy and you get great views of the city. The Senate Square, Botanical gardens and the Suomenlinna Fortress are not to be missed. The Museum of Contemporary Art and the National Opera are great for a spot of high culture. Shopping is also a must in the city – enjoying craft markets for all those vital souvenirs. And after a day on the move public saunas are located in numerous places around the city. Café Tin Tin is great – it’s a restaurant and a public sauna!
Helsinki is a city break with a difference. The fresh vibe of the city is a mass of old and new standing side by side – architecture and lifestyles. Wander through the streets of Helsinki whilst on your holiday in Finland and admire the loved buildings of Alvar Aalto.
