The following morning, head out of Helsinki and drive to Porvoo, Finland's second oldest town and a beautiful city full of history with its timeless and unique atmosphere. You will have free time to explore Porvoo.
Your final full day in Helsinki will show a different side of the city. Start with a visit to the Design District, full of fascinating shops, galleries and museums. The Arabianranta district is where you will discover that art is a part of everyday life. Then take the streetcar passing by Hietalahti Market Hall which provides a broad variety of fresh foods, Sinebrychoff Art Museum with its collection of old masters, the National Gallery, Helsinki University Botanical Garden, Arabiakeskus design store and the interesting Tapiola Wirrkala Park.
