Adorable place by the sea with countryside wibes, stop by for a coffee or a snack. You can hardly notice at all that you are in the capital city. During weekends prepare to wait in line, this place might get crowded. Open daily: 8am-10pm @caferegatta

A secret gem right in the heart of Helsinki! Cafe is open every day 10-17, and lunch is served mon-fri 11-14. I sincerely recommend everything they make, especially their sour gough bread and the salmon soup which they serve every wednesday at lunch.

Helsinki's oldest and best known park is surrounded by embassies and villas. The nearby sea, rock cliffs and green lawns offer many opportunities to relax and enjoy the outdoors. During winter, if the snow situation permits, the park is popular for sledding. At the highest point of the park is the Ursa Observatory. There are also several cafées and restaurants along the shore and on the islands. - visithelsinki.fi

2019 World’s Public Library of the Year and one of the most beautiful buildings I know, Oodi is a library of today. It’s interesting to look at from every angle, and the roof looks like it’s fading to the clouds when it’s grey and foggy weather. In addition to the architectural uniqueness outside, a visit inside on the top floor is also highly recommend.
