Helsinki Underground City Walking Tour
Few people know that in the capital of Finland there is not only underground underground - there is a whole underground city hidden here! With streets, shopping and sports complexes, cafes, restaurants and even a swimming pool. I invite you to learn the secrets of this world, hear unusual and even fantastic stories about metro stations, walk along the underground Mannerheim Avenue and make a wish at the Tree of Wonders. A nice bonus - the weather will not affect the course of our tour and your impressions.
