Some options for sightseeing. :)
An island fortress on the coast of Helsinki. Lovely for a day visit, especially if the weather's good! Fun fact: people actually live here and travel to mainland for work each day on a ferry.

A restaurant slash bar slash heated swimming pool. A weird idea that has become really popular. Even if you don't wanna go for a swim, which I recommend, it's worth checking out.

Perhaps my favourite bar in Helsinki. A good selection of beers and whiskeys, a warm atmosphere but not too fancy: a perfect mix.

Wanna listen to jazz and eat a five star dinner at the same time? This restobar does live music and food, both often excellent. Would go here every night if I could afford it. :)
