Helsinki one day trip,easy and happy

I chose to go Finland during Autumn time,because i want to walk more and don't want to walk under sunny day.

What you can do in Helsinki, if you only have one day ?

Take a bus to city from airport is easy.Route: Bus line 600 operates between the airport and Helsinki city center. You can take train as well, but nothing much to see from train.

Travel time: The bus ride takes about 40-50 minutes. Train is about 35 minutes.


Please join the free walking tour,just gave the tips at the end of the trip.

The experience starts in the heart of the city, where the guide (i had Lara, who was warm and really funny!) leads you through some of Helsinki’s most iconic sights, from the neoclassical splendor of Senate Square to the colorful charm of Katajanokka’s Art Nouveau buildings.

But the real treat is what you’ll taste along the way. Inside the historic Old Market Hall, we got to sample smoked reindeer and bear, traditional rye bread, salty-sweet caviar, and even some local chocolate.

What i loved most was how our guide tied each flavor to a piece of Finnish culture or history. From learning why rye bread is such a staple to discovering the story behind Finland’s obsession with all things sweet and salty, we learned something new with every dish.

This is a walking tour with a relaxed pace and plenty of opportunities to sit or linger. It’s a great intro to Helsinki, especially for first-timers or anyone curious about the local food scene.

After the walking tour i went to Temppeliaukio Church, Uspenski Cathedral, Helsinki Cathedral, and Sibelius Park.

Before went back to the hotel nearby the Helsinki Cathedral i walked to Kauppatori open air market to take a break and have a salmon soup for dinner.
