Experience Helsinki with Be

Why Helsinki?

It might be Finland’s capital city, with historic landmarks at every turn, but Helsinki is filled with hidden gems too. Forward-thinking architecture, a big focus on sustainability, parks, open spaces, beautiful cathedrals, and that’s all before exploring its 330-island archipelago. It’s also a foodie paradise — dive into the coffee culture and get a cinnamon bun at every opportunity. I love it most in summer when there can be 20 hours of daylight, so take advantage of all that time to explore, get an alternative view of the city by boat, visit a typical Finnish sauna at the famous Allas Sea Pool, go inside the stunning new Oodi Library, or take a ferry ride to Suomenlinna, an 18th-century sea fortress and UNESCO World Heritage Site. Did I mention coffee?
