Experience three different sides of Helsinki in one day!
We begin at Oodi Helsinki Central Library, an award-winning public library that has become one of Helsinki's most famous landmarks. More than just a library, Oodi offers modern architecture, creative spaces, beautiful views, and a unique place where people meet, learn, and relax.
After exploring Oodi, we will have lunch together at Hesburger, a Finnish fast-food restaurant chain, where everyone can choose their own meal (vege available).
After Hessburger we take a bus 24 (14:00) from Kamppi to Seurasaari.
In the afternoon, we will travel by bus to Seurasaari Open-Air Museum, a beautiful island where historic wooden buildings from different parts of Finland have been preserved. Surrounded by forests and the sea, Seurasaari is one of the best places to experience traditional Finnish culture and nature.
