Description
A 30-metre-high spire that can be pulled down, a dog that managed to catch 108 criminals without human help, a hidden giant face on the pedestal of Elias L nnrot's statue, a hidden Kalevala-scene fresco inside the Old Student House, a statue for a homeless alcoholic, a grave with a cannonball, the smallest public statue in Helsinki ... Far from the crowds and the usual clich s, Helsinki still conceals treasures that are only revealed to locals and visitors who know how to step off the beaten track. An indispensable guide for those who thought they already knew the city, or would like to discover its other facets.Product Details
