About Helsinki

Helsinki is the capital of Finland and the most innovative, most design-forward and most internationally celebrated city in the Nordic countries — a city of 660,000 inhabitants (metropolitan population 1.5 million) just 16km south of Helsinki Airport, whose extraordinary combination of the Helsinki Cathedral (the Tuomiokirkko, the most iconic neoclassical landmark in Finland, its white dome visible across the South Harbour from the Senate Square — the most perfectly composed neoclassical urban square in Scandinavia, designed by Carl Ludwig Engel, the most ambitious single act of urban design in Finnish history), the Suomenlinna Sea Fortress (the UNESCO World Heritage island fortress in Helsinki harbour, the most impressive 18th-century maritime fortification in the Nordic countries, built 1748-1772 on six islands as a Swedish sea fortress against Russian expansion, now the most visited tourist attraction in Finland) and the extraordinary concentration of Art Nouveau and National Romantic architecture (Helsinki has the highest concentration of Finnish National Romantic and Jugend architecture of any city in the world, its early 20th-century buildings representing the most complete expression of Finnish national architectural identity in existence, the Finlandia Hall by Alvar Aalto the most celebrated Finnish architectural monument of the 20th century) give it a cultural and architectural heritage of European significance.

Helsinki's most extraordinary contemporary identity is its role as the world capital of design and innovation (the World Design Capital 2012, with the highest number of design companies per capita in Europe, the Design District Helsinki — the most concentrated design and arts quarter of any Nordic capital — and the Aalto University, the most internationally respected design and technology university in the Nordic countries). The Finnish food culture (Helsinki's extraordinary restaurant scene, with the New Nordic movement's Finnish branch producing some of the most innovative cuisine in Europe from reindeer, lingonberry, cloudberry, wild mushroom and Baltic fish; the Hakaniemi and Hietalahti market halls — the most authentic traditional Finnish food markets; the Kauppatori harbour market — the most atmospheric outdoor market in the Nordic countries) and the extraordinary sauna culture (Finland has 3.3 million saunas for 5.5 million people, and the Helsinki public saunas — Löyly and Allas Sea Pool the most celebrated — represent the most authentic Finnish cultural tradition in the capital) give the city a gastronomic and cultural identity of remarkable depth.
