Helsinki in winter - Helsinki

Helsinki in winter

by sabsi

In winter Helsinki has a special charme I think - especially around the port. The sea is frozen. As the big ferries and the small Suomenlinna ferry are still in service the ice contains of little pieces which gives the whole port a somewhat special look.

All lakes are frozen, too. People walk their dogs on Töölönlahti which is covered in snow. With blue skies it's beautiful (and not too cold ;) And if you are cold, there's always a nice cafe to warm up...

Address: Keskusta

Review Helpfulness: 3.5 out of 5 stars
