jussi from Finland wrote about Nuuksio National Park 2 years, one month ago
Nuuksio is a very nice national park close to Helsinki. Nuuksio is highland and there are a lot of small lakes and some (easy to reach) hiking routes. Definitely worth visiting during the summer time. You can get there from Helsinki even using public transportation!

If you want to have a taste of wildlife but don't want to leave the Helsinki area then try out Nuuksio. It's not really wild but still it's a quite nice national park close to Helsinki.
vesterinen from Finland wrote about Bistro Nolla one year, 7 months ago
A laid back bar with a design-esque school cafeteria like interior: Very chic! Crowd consists of the Helsinki hipsters and freelance types leeching off the local WiFi networks, so be prepared to find the grown up ex-skateboarders in AA hoodies and skinny jeans. One of the few places in Helsinki where the volume level does not shoot up automatically to annoy the hell out of you. Great Club Sandwich. Definitely worth a visit and a mellow chat over a beer or two.

suviko from Finland wrote about Café Tin Tin Tango one year, 6 months ago
Café Tin Tin Tango is a versatile place: a cafe, bar, pastry shop, small gallery and a self-service laundry in the back and even a sauna cabin for 6 on reservation. They serve breakfast from morning till past midnight and you can eat a salad or a submarine as lunch. The bar is fully licensed - one person in a table can be drinking wine while others are still grabbing a very late breakfast. Tango playing on the background gives this place the finishing touch that makes it a favorite and living room of locals of all ages.

Kannunkulma (known as "Kannu") is the most popular nightclub-restaurant nearby Espoon Keskus.
Its quite small, nice and cozy place with inexpensive prices.
Karaoke @ Tuesdays & Sundays, striptease on Wednesdays.
Every weekend young people from all over Espoo are coming to paaaartyyy! So be there ;)
And for smokers: this one of the few nightclubs left that allows you to have your cigarette wherever you wish - instead of leaving your seats and drinks by going outside.

leo from Finland wrote about Ringside Golf one year, 7 months ago
Ringside is quite an easy course, you have plenty of room to slice on most of the holes with just a few outs. Most of the holes remind me of an airport landing strip. If you like to hit hard with a driver (and who wouldn't?), this is your course. The clubhouse is also good, it's situated on a hill with 9th and 18th hole ending there and you can see them well from the sauna balcony. Burgers are good. Not the most beautiful or intriguing course but it does the job.

Very nice summer restaurant close to Helsinki with lovely atmosphere. They have a good private peer for boats, or you can get there with a public ferry.

In the same island (south side) there's also a public grilling site etc.
RECOMMEND!

Avoid lunch at Boom. There are lot's of fast food restaurants at Iso Omena that beat eating at Boom by miles. Or visit the nearby pakistani restaurant Peshawar that has excellent pakistani buffet table every day.
karolina from Finland wrote about Boom Restaurant one year, 9 months ago
If there is anything good to be said about
this restaurant, it's the fact that it has set
the lowest point on the scale of my dining experiences.
Dull, unappealing food in equally unappealing settings,
unless you're into the eighties cruise boats type of furnishings,
wall-to-wall carpet with undefined stains on it etc.
Rather go and grab a burger, at least that's "honest" food.

leo from Finland wrote about Kurk Golf one year, 7 months ago
Kurk is pretty close to Helsinki and the green fee is not that bad, check out the rates from the link below. You can also buy tickets (pelilippu) from the web quite cheap. The course has its share of forest, water and hills and is a joy to play. If you're a regular and know the course, occasional blind shot over the trees on a dogleg can get you into good position for an eagle.. if you get it right.

Kivenlahti Rock is a summer starter! It is conveniently located within easy reach from the capital area and as such makes it easy to try out if one is up to yet another festival summer. ;-) This festival is not huge nor full of international top artists - instead it has a village-like friendly atmosphere (although the after-party clubs may not be the best places to after the gigs).

Cafe Mellsten is the meeting point for everyone nearby in Haukilahti, it's a great place to start your day during weekends. Relax in the sun on the terrace and enjoy home made cinnamon buns while looking at the sea and listening to waves hitting the shore. A cup of coffee or beer depending on your activities last night top the enjoyment.

The stadium has a tower where you can climb for a small fee. The view over Helsinki is very nice!
juha from Finland wrote about Lake Bodom 2 years, 7 months ago
Bodom has a nice beach but the best thing to do is to ride around it with a motorcycle. The roads are narrow and very curvy making it one of the most popular evening ride routes in Espoo.
juha from Finland wrote about Helsinki Olympic Stadium 2 years, 7 months ago
The stadium was built for the 1952 Olympics. The thing to do is to climb the pretty high tower and get a really nice view over Helsinki.

tilkkuliini from Finland wrote about Helsinki Olympic Stadium one year, 2 months ago
They started to build the stadium in 1934 and it took 4 years to get it ready. In 1990-94 they renovated it and now days there are 40 000 seats in stead of 70 000 standing places.
Someone has said that this is the most beautiful olympic stadium in the world. Well, maybe it is, if you compare to the new ugly things, but I would say I have seen more beautiful than this. Still, it's an interesting thing in Finland's history and the tower is nice.
