Uspenski Cathedral

While slightly less famous than the main cathedral, the Uspenski Cathedral is another iconic landmark of the city that dates back to 1868 and is completely free to visit.

One of the most famous European markets is located here in Helsinki, precisely at the South Harbour. You can find everything, from souvenirs to local food.

This stunning building is one of the three official residences of the president of the Republic of Finland. His construction was completed in 1854 and was even used as the Military Hospital during World War I.
