Helsinki Insight Pocket Guide by Brian Bell
This 96-page book offers an experts guide to Helsinki, with seven walking tours of the city and three excursions to attractions further afield. In Helsinki, almost every corner reveals another intriguing detail: an elegantly carved facade, a statue, a curved window, or a figurine so full of humour it makes you burst out laughing. This guidebook describes seven walking tours of Finlands coastal capital, followed by three excursions by train or car to interesting towns in southern Finland, plus a day-trip to Talinn, the capital of Estonia, just a short hop across the bay from Helsinki. It also includes a chapter detailing Finland's history and culture, as well as leisure-time suggestions and an information section packed with essential contact addresses and numbers. Plus dozens of full-colour photographs and maps, including a pull-out map that clearly shows all the tours and excursions.
