Let Secret Helsinki guide you around the unusual and unfamiliar.
Step off the beaten track with this fascinating Helsinki guide book
and let our local experts show you the well-hidden treasures of
this amazing city. Ideal for local inhabitants, curious visitors
and armchair travellers alike. A dog that managed to catch 108
criminals without human help, a statue to a homeless alcoholic, the
anti-aircraft defences where Tom of Finland became a war hero, a
plaque in honour of somebody who never existed, swimming naked in
the country's oldest swimming pool, the only church in the world
that doubles as a lighthouse, a free sauna open 24 hours, a walk
through the water to a secret island, a hidden Kalevala-scene
fresco inside the Old Student House, a natural waterfall within the
city, the location of Star Wars' Princess Leia's necklace, "Short
Island" - the antithesis of New York's Long Island, a church turned
nightclub turned church again, the only statue of a Russian tsar
outside Russia ... Far from the crowds and the usual cliches,
Helsinki is filled with hidden treasures revealed only to residents
and visitors who leave the beaten path. An indispensable guide for
those who thought they knew the city well or who would like to
discover its many other facets.
