Seurasaari

There is one place in Helsinki where you can go back in time, and be surrounded for a while by lovely buildings and nature, Its the Museum Island of Seurasaari, a 20 min from center of Helsinki by bus. There is also a sand beach and a nudists beach for those in deeper contact with nature.
I recommended a visit there, Also I discover this time the very nice building of the Urho Kekkonen house from the early twenty century, now a days a Museum and a restaurant-cafe.

Old Railway Ratapiha

Last weekend we went for a small family trip to discover the Tallikatu area. There stands the old railway tracks and where the trains used to turn back to the city. Now a days is a place with a small restaurant-cafeteria , a Greenhouse and is been organized events in the old warehouse.
Would be nice if someone will decide to re open or restore the area and make it suitable for residential.  Here some images from our visit!
