Helsinki Qué ver
Visión general
La zona central de Helsinki se concentra en torno del bullicioso paseo frente al mar de Kauppatori (Plaza del Mercado). Es allí donde sus habitantes de reúnen para almorzar, comprar pescado fresco y verduras o productos de los puestos del mercado. El corazón arquitectónico de Helsinki, Senaatintori (Plaza del Senado), se encuentra a tan sólo cinco minutos a pie de esta zona. La mejor visión general de la ciudad se obtiene desde su edificio más alto, el Hotel Torni, desde el cual es posible observar los lugares más célebres de Helsinki. Entre éstos destaca el Finlandia Hall, de Alvar Aalto, y Miasma, la galería de arte contemporáneo construida por Steven Holl. El tranvía 3T pasa por todas las atracciones principales y es una forma ideal para los turistas de obtener una visión general de la ciudad.
Hietaniemi Beach
Known for its sandy beach, Hietaniemi Beach is widely attractive among the tourists and locals because of its close proximity to the city location. Visitors can relax on warm days playing volleyball, having picnics, sunbathing or swimming.
Location: Off the Toolo district.
Temppeliaukio Church
Known for being the church built into a solid rock, Temppeliaukio Church is certainly one of its kind. Natural light pours in from the church's glazed dome, the rough stoned interiors amplify each echo the choir makes. Visited by about half million curious tourists each year, it is a glorious interpretation of strong faith in one with nature. Located in the district of Toolo, this interesting Lutheran church is also a concert venue because of its raw sound quality acoustics.
