Helsinki Overview

By Travel Expert: Candyce H. Stapen

Think "Finland" and what comes to mind is likely to be "water," "boats," "stylish design," and "saunas," all of which 'tweens and teens like. Helsinki, Finland's capital, lies on a peninsula in the Gulf of Finland, surrounded by the sea on three sides. The busy harbor serves as the nation's main port and the place to board boats to explore neighboring islands.
