Helsinki, Finland

Welcome to the Old Town in Helsinki—the capital and largest city of Finland. Often referred to as the 'Daughter of the Baltic' or the 'Pearl of the Baltic,' this city sits gracefully at the tip of a peninsula, surrounded by 315 islands. Often regarded as Finland's only metropolis, this region is the northernmost metropolitan area in the world with a population exceeding one million.
