For an outdoor experience, why not stroll around our biggest open-air museum? 



This museum island, Seurasaari, holds old Finnish houses and displays some of our old farm life history. As children, we used to feed nuts to the squirrels. I don&#8217;t know if that&#8217;s allowed anymore &#8211; but if it is, take a few almonds in your pocket to see if you can get a squirrel to eat out of your hand. 



Also, the bridge over to the island is iconic to us Helsinki-ers. A selfie upon each visit is a must!

Seurasaari

This museum showcases the life and accomplishments of Baron Gustaf Mannerheim. He was, inarguably, one of the most influential figures in our country&#8217;s history. He was an explorer, military man, politician, and humanitarian.



The museum visits always includes a guided tour that gives the visitors new perspectives. From every exhibition the museum aims to leave a permanent mark, through traditional publications. So if you are a sucker for history, the Mannerheim Museum is definitely for you!

For a sauna experience close by, this old public sauna is part of the neighbourhood&#8217;s history. Back in the day, not all houses had saunas (or even showers), so people would bathe in public saunas. 



If you go Thursday or Saturday, you can even book a time with a &#8220;washer&#8221; lady who will scrub you clean. Culture shock warning &#8211; Finns traditionally sauna naked. There will also be naked men (in towels, of course, we&#8217;re not barbarians) outside on the street.
