MY 5 Reasons To Go
Ryssänkärki on Lauttasaari island. Smooth rocks, open seafront and small cluster of cabins. On a sunny day the perfect spot for total relaxation.
Kotiharju Sauna A public sauna since 1928. Incredible feeling and place!
»» Harjutorinkatu 1 a, 00500 Helsinki. +358 9 7531535.
Jaska's Grill Kiosk World's best fast food for those late night munchies, with extra garlic, of course. Dagmarinkatu, across the street from Restaurant Manala.
Suomenlinna Fortress Island A relaxed choice for a slow, sunny day.
People-watching in downtown Helsinki. Best done in summer from a restaurant patio.
