Restaurant known for it's Liuskas (basically an oval pizza). Nice vibe in the new Kallio location. However, for the authentic experience, I recommend visiting their original location on an island called Liuskaluoto. Menu: http://skiffer.fi/

One of my favourite cafe's in the area (perhaps because it's so close and has cheaper coffee than most cafes in the area). This place offers a good value for money -brunch, doubles as an art gallery and triples as a vintage furniture store. They offer mainly breakfast and brunch and home made delicious raw cakes. https://rupla.fi/

Small Restaurant / Winebar specialised in... you know it, Wine! There was something special about the special wine, but I can't remember what it was, perhaps you can go and ask them what's so special about their wines.

Drinks & Nightlife

This is where most of the clubbing goes down. Mostly Techno, House.. Queues on weekends tend to stretch quite a bit, so arrive before 11 if you want to have easy access. Ticket to Kaiku also includes ticket to Kuudes Linja (other club in the same ''Complex''). The two clubs are joined by a terrace. Kuudes linja has more of a hiphop/rap/trap scene, but can also be something completely different. https://clubkaiku.fi/

I thought hard about keeping this spot a secret. It is not for everyone, but for those that understand its beauty, it is the bomb. If you end up going there (and find it up and running), bring a towel and swimming suit, be respectful of others, ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS close the door when leaving the sauna (quickly) and NEVER EVER EVER litter, or behave disrespectfully towards the other people.

When you live in a city all your life, it's sometimes hard to appreciate the obvious touristy parts of it. Suomenlinna is touristy, but at the same time it is one of a kind. There's no other place in Helsinki quite like it. It's worth a picnic on a sunny day. Just beware of the seagulls.

Finlandia house by Alvar Aalto, finished in 1971. Originally only one part of a larger scheme of cultural buildings that Aalto had designed to be built on the western shore of Töölönlahti. However, the rest never got built.

Functionalist building by Viljo Revell, Heimo Riihimäki and Niilo Kokko, finished in 1936. It's one of the most iconic functionalist buildings in Helsinki alongside the Olympic stadium. The inner courtyard is currently under renovation, a new art gallery/museum will open there soon, located under the crust.

Nestled next to the Uspenski Cathedral, this Stora Enso headquarter was designed by famous Finnish architect Alvar Aalto. If you don't find it impressive, don't worry, just look at the Cathedral instead.

This old industrial area is now a cultural hub and the setting for Flow Festival. It's also the home of the modern cirkus Cirko. There's often something going on in the area during weekends.
