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.
