🇫🇮 20 BEST THINGS TO DO IN HELSINKI: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gGLTo5p9iNSjlbc

[@megandmiketravels]

Saunas in Finland are definitely on our bucket list!!!! Amazing!

[@yourlocalexplorers]

We cannot recommend it more guys, such a great experience 🤩

[@Aquelll]

The Temppeliaukio church was heavily criticised when it was being build for being too expensive of an ordeal. But it paid itself back in under 10 years in post card sales alone.

[@yourlocalexplorers]

wow how interesting, thanks for sharing!

[@mrleeart]

It looks like you had an action-packed day in Helsinki, immersing yourself in the city's culture, history, and natural beauty. I hope you created wonderful memories and enjoyed every moment of your time in this vibrant Finnish capital.

[@yourlocalexplorers]

Yes it was exactly like that! A great mix of everything 😍 We just shared another exciting experience we had in Helsinki and next week we will sum up this Series with 20 best things to do in Helsinki!

[@Serpentiis]

Just remember to visit Tampere and rest of the Finland next time heheh... just kidding, Helsinki is a great city.

[@sket179]

Suomenlinna: interesting choices of words on escape. ;) Locals working there may have been prisoners. There's an open prison there, and the inmates work on upkeep of the island.

[@yourlocalexplorers]

thanks for sharing this info with all us, appreciate your time 🤍 have a lovely Sunday & see you around!

[@paanikki]

One of the largest (if not THE largest) saunas in the world, and definitely the best known sauna in Finland is actually located in the western island of Suomenlinna, at the campus of Finnish Naval Academy. For obvious reasons, is not open for public.

[@yourlocalexplorers]

must be awesome! 🤩

[@markkuahlamaa770]

Hello From Helsinki / Finland ! Mellunmäki is my Home ! #Retired4You

[@yourlocalexplorers]

oh hi Mark, to great to see you around 😍

[@markkuahlamaa770]

@@yourlocalexplorers Thank you for this answer & all the Best to you ! Hello from Helsinki. #Retired4You

[@Aquelll]

Suomenlinna also has an open prison. Many of the groundkeepers on the island are inmates serving their sentence and getting paid for the work they do.

[@yourlocalexplorers]

thanks for sharing your knowledge with us!

[@ourfamilyadventures_04]

Wow this was an amazing vlog! We had never thought of visiting Helsinki before, but you guys showed the best of it! That salmon soup looked great by the way ☺🤩 great job 👏👏👍

[@yourlocalexplorers]

So glad this inspired you to think about visiting Finland! There's a bit more to come so stay tuned and see you around guys💛

[@sket179]

Smoke sauna is different in it that there is no chimney and you don't bathe when the fire is on but afterwards when fire has burnt out and smoke and carbon monoxide let fully out. Normal wood saunas and electric saunas are on when you are bathing.

[@yourlocalexplorers]

yes exactly! 😌

[@escapedia]

[@SPPhotography89]

Plans for the Temppeliaukio/Tempelplatsen (Temple square) began as early as the 1930s, when a plot of land was selected for the building and a competition for the design was held. The plan by J. S. Siren, the winner of the second competition to design the architecture of the church, was interrupted in its early stages when World War II began in 1939. After the war, there was another architectural competition, subsequently won by Timo and Tuomo Suomalainen in 1961. For economic reasons, the suggested plan was scaled back and the interior space of the church then reduced to about one-quarter of its original design. Construction finally began in February 1968, and the rock-temple was completed for consecration in September 1969. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temppeliaukio_Church

[@biyaherongpobre]

Oh really. Wow. I imagine how hard it was at the start of the construction of the whole structure.

[@yourlocalexplorers]

Helsinki is such a unique city to explore!

[@travelstyle5335]

You guys didn't realize that drones are NOT allowed in the city center area.

[@Serpentiis]

If you want best finnish public sauna, come to Tampere.

[@yourlocalexplorers]

thanks for your suggestion, hope we can try it the next time we come! 🤩

[@WorldTrypChannel]

I remember that I really liked the Temppeliaukion kirkko, certainly a particular church but I don't find it right to pay 4 euros to visit it😅... it's absurd especially if you consider that visiting the Oodi is free. Nice ride to Suomenlinna, I haven't been to the island, I remember that the port was frozen and I don't even know how they manage to go there in the winter months🤷🏻‍♂️

[@clopec]

I think it is wrong to charge money for visiting a church. But the membership in the Lutheran church of Finland is dwindling so they are strapped for cash. As for the Suomenlinna ferries, they run around the year. The ferries are capable of breaking through thin ice on themselves, and if they need some assistance, there are some tugs/ harbor ice breakers that can help (one of the ferries is actually a tug that has been converted). Until the 80s, there used to be an ice road to Suomenlinna during winters, so you could walk or take the bus.

[@WorldTrypChannel]

@@clopec I agree, you shouldn't have to pay the ticket to enter the church and in any case not only the Lutherans charge to enter, now there are many long places of worship in the world that can be visited only by paying the ticket😕... wow the road on the ice i would have really liked to see it... but i was in finland in february 2022😄🤷🏻‍♂️👋🏻

[@petejoki]

Hi 💞🇫🇮💞🤘

[@yourlocalexplorers]

hey there 😊

[@MENSA.lady2]

Been their and enjoyed the experience, but it's very expensive even compared to London where I live. I left by getting the ferry to Riga in Latvia and the costs differrence was amazing.

[@yourlocalexplorers]

Finland can be expensive but to be honest it haven't felt that way for us as we visited off the high peak season ..

[@daisyRoutesLive]

I really enjoyed my visit to Finland, the summers are so nice there

[@yourlocalexplorers]

did you visited also in Summer? we hope to be back during winter months to explore the North! 🤩

[@daisyRoutesLive]

@@yourlocalexplorers I'm not brave enough for a Finish Winter :)
