I recently spent 2 days in Helsinki, Finland, the port of departure for a 72 hour visa-free trip to St. Petersburg, Russia. What should you include on a 2-day itinerary in Helsinki city centre? Based on my visit, I consider Helsinki to be an off-the-beaten-path gem in Europe. Read on for ideas of what to see in Helsinki as part of a 2-day itinerary including tips from a local friend of mine who showed us around.
