Helsinki Activities
Suomenlinna Maritime Fortress is one of the biggest sea fortresses in the world, founded in 1748 and built by Augustin Ehrensvärd on islands off the coast of Helsinki
Linnanmäki has entertained families since 1950. The amusement park has an enormous selection of fun rides, from ultra scary to more easy-going
Sea Life takes you on a voyage from the tropical oceans to the Arctic Sea, stopping at the Baltic Sea along the way. Discover strange and fascinating underwater worlds, home to crabs and starfish as well as sharks and rays
Helsinki Zoo (founded in 1889) is one of the oldest zoos in the world. In Helsinki Zoo you meet animals all the way from the arctic tundra to the tropical rainforest
Quarried out of the natural bedrock, Temppeliaukio Church is one of Helsinki's most popular tourist attractions
The Uspenski Cathedral is the largest orthodox church in Western Europe. With its golden cupolas and redbrick facade, the church is one of the clearest symbols of the Russian impact on Finnish history
Ateneum Art Museum holds Finland's biggest collection of paintings, sculpture, drawings, watercolours and graphic art
At the Fallkulla Domestic Animal Zoo children and the young can take part in animal care and help with work on the farm
A unique tropical garden, Gardenia, was opened in April 2001. The luxuriant tropical garden, covered by glass, is a beautiful and refreshing place to visit all year round
Longyearbyen is the largest settlement in the Svalbard archipelago, Norway and also its capital. The settlement was founded in 1906 by John Munroe Longyear, main owner of the Arctic Coal Company of Boston. "Byen" is Norwegian for "the city". It was destroyed by the Germans in 1943 and rebuilt after World War II, with the old foundations still visible in some places. Until the early-1990s the coal mining industry was the major employer in Longyearbyen. The daily life circled only around the mining business. Today, the community offers a wide range of activities and facilities. There is a swimming hall, a climbing wall, a big sports hall, a grocery store, three pubs, three hotels, one church, several tourists shops, a cinema (Sundays) and one night club, and a squash court.
