The 21 Best Things to Do in Helsinki (Updated 2025)

"Built in the 19th century as a tribute to Czar Nicholas I and a defining feature of the skyline, the cathedral is perhaps not the grandest in Europe but I think it’s one of the best in Scandinavia; it sits next to the Bank Museum, offers a short free organ recital every Wednesday at 5pm, and requests a suggested donation on entry." - Matthew Kepnes
