Slideshows

Helsinki provides uniquely beautiful winter views that combine snow, ice, sky and ocean – all within a few steps of the city centre.

We open a book that takes you off the beaten path in Helsinki, in words and photos – see the slideshow.

Our photos show that you don’t have to leave the Finnish capital to find greenery and peaceful scenery.

We wander around this magnificent fortress, visiting the Snow Hotel, the Snow Restaurant and the Snow Chapel while pondering the meaning of ice.

Short days and darkness force photographers to see things in a new light. See what we mean in this slideshow.

Photographer Taneli Eskola seeks out the places where city and nature meet for the book Exploring Helsinki.

We preserve Finland’s summer festival atmosphere in photos so we can continue to savour it all year round.
