Town

魔女三号babykikileeThe ancient city of Porvoo is the second oldest city in Finland. It was built in the 13th century and is 50 kilometers east of Helsinki. Today’s weather is not very good. It is cloudy, occasionally it snows, and some of the ground on the street is frozen. . Since it was winter and the river was frozen, we did not go to the riverside position, but only visited some of the scenic spots in the old city. This is where many Finnish artists live, and coming here is full of art.

Historical Architecture

_We***49this church cant be miss . is near donwtown and is walking distance from the port as well. Do avoid noon time as it get crowded with all the tour bus . As for the church it is Grand and impressive exterior with a huge open plaza in the front. When on top of the steps, you get great views of Helsinki. Interior is a bit more muted and spartan but tastefully done. The organ is beautiful and shows really well inside the church. The pulpit and altar have simple, clean lines and are both very elegant. Allow about 30-45 mins for a visit.
