Kallio Neighborhood Tour

Do you want to visit the most bohemian and alternative Helsinki? If so, join us on this tour of the Kallio district to discover the most unknown chapters of Finnish history!

Description

At the indicated time, we'll meet at the Hakaniemi market to start a tour of the Kallio neighbourhood. This area was once a working-class neighbourhood but has evolved into a creative and alternative part of Helsinki. As we walk towards the park, we'll share historical insights.

During the tour, we'll see the exterior of Kallio Church, a Lutheran temple from the early 20th century known for its large granite tower. We will discuss its significance during the Finnish Civil War.

As we explore Kallio, we'll also visit Bear Park, local cafes, exotic shops, and vintage clothes markets that are prominent in the area.

Finally, we'll conclude the tour at the starting point after 2 hours together.
