Seurasaari Open-Air MuseumSeurasaaren Ulkomuseo

The museum is a collection of old wooden buildings, scattered among the island's beauty, and at a glance, these buildings and the island's home-grown buildings naturally blend. But in fact, they are collected from all over Finland and placed on the island in an ancient way, so that they look more like original masterpieces.

Take bus 24 and get off at Seurasaari stop. Couple Island is 4 kilometers from Helsinki city center. It seems only open in summer, a series of independent cabins, and you pay around the entrance to squirrel island, or seurasaari, to find small houses everywhere on a map.

Seurasaari is about an hour's walk from the center of Helsinki, and is often translated as Couple Island, an open-air museum reflecting traditional life and production, with plenty of fearless squirrels and flocks of wild birds.

Loved a museum, although small, but the space utilization is good and the design is simple, the museum shows the history of the construction of Finnish fort, and people living on the castle, there are many audio and video clips, it is great to watch when the people are few.

This beautiful open-air museum has many houses from different eras. Most of the buildings were moved from other places in Finland. From June to August there are daily guided tours in English ;)

This is like countryside in the middle of Helsinki city. Visiting Seurasaari Island and Open-Air Museum is an excellent idea for the day out for anyone who likes wooden buildings. Take buss 24 and walk over the bridge to a nice island park. You can go there at summer time for the open-air museum covering 1/4 of the island.

Seurasaari is where Seurasaari Open-Air Museum is located, which is similar to Skansen of Stockholm. Here you can see old, wooden buildings that have been transferred. It's a popular place to enjoy the rural, peaceful outdoor atmosphere for the locals.

The open air museum of Finnish buildings from the 1800s is just one part of the island's appeal. There is a restaurant, wildlife and a variety of hiking trails with beautiful vistas. Best appreciated by leisurely strolling rather than speed walking.

Meaning "meeting-place", this island reserve is populated with friendly wildlife and features an open-air museum of wooden Finnish architecture and a nudist beach.
