ABOUT HELSINKI
Helsinki is the lovely human-sized capital city of Finland. Located on the shore of the Baltic Sea, Helsinki is a perfect destination for a weekend holiday with many cultural experiences and historical attractions.
Helsinki is also the designated gateway to the rest of Finland and the northern lands of Lapland. Helsinki Airport is a hub connected to major airports in Europe and the rest of the world. The national airline Finnair enjoys one of the best reputations in the world, with more than 11 million passengers each year.
Helsinki is also connected by sea (to Estonia, Poland and Sweden in particular) and by train, offering the opportunity to find yourself in the heart of the peaceful nature of the Nordic countries in just a few hours. The famous Santa Express train promises a unique experience for travelers heading to Rovaniemi, the official city of Santa Claus and the main city of Lapland.
