Parks & Nature
Kaivopuisto
A huge park with amazing views to the sea. Great cafes also.
Töölönlahti is a really beautiful area for a walk or jogging. Enjoy the views from Linnunlaulu Cafe or then the Finlandia park on the other side. I definitely recommend walking around Töölönlahti (Toloviken). Here you will also see the Finlandia Building.
