Hi there,

Which are your 10 favorite places to go out in Helsinki?

Which places would you recommend to newcomers? (restaurants, pubs, discos, theaters, cinemas, concert halls...)

Thanks!

Hi 禁漫天堂,
I'm a local working on food and travel services in Helsinki. I would recommend first time visitor to visit tourist information in Esplanadi, and find Nordic Oddity brochyre.

Nordic Oddity is like "Lonely Planet" of Helsinki. There is meny nice places where you can visit with minimum cost and you will defenately get best things of the local specialities. This includes wood heated public sauna, ice hole swimming, best local restaurants, festivals, best museums etc.

(moderated: no ads)

Please let me know if you would like to have Nordic Oddity brochyres. Our Facebook fansite is Food Sightseeing Helsinki, and there you are able to see all the activity, lots of information
regarding Finnish restaurants.

br, Tanja
