Finland’s capital city is renowned as a leader in modern design and has become a creative hub with contemporary highlights crafted by leaders in design including hometown architect Alvar Aalto. Buffered by more than 300 islands and the Baltic Sea, Helsinki’s harbors are constantly buzzing with activity. The city is also surrounded by pastoral environments that make it easy to escape the hectic nature of the city for a weekend adventure outdoors.
