What To Expect

Helsinki

You will meet our guide at the Senate Square to see the neoclassical old city center and visit the Lutheran Cathedral that dominates this area. Designed by Carl Ludvig Engel and completed in 1852, the Cathedral has recently been refurbished and looks better than ever, with the 12 apostles on the roof once again looking down at the world below. It’s time for the Greek Orthodox Cathedral also known as Uspenski Cathedral, with the five domes topped with 22-carat gold, and some of the icons within are held to be miraculous. Next we head for the Market Square (Kauppatori), Helsinki’s most international and famous market, which is worth seeing during the market hours. We will visit the Old Market Hall with booths that sell traditional market foods and treats, as well as handicrafts and souvenirs. We will end our walk surrounded by nature, by taking a pleasant promenade into the relaxing Esplanadi Park.
