Part 5/10:
If you’re planning a trip, don’t put November on your itinerary. Considered a particularly dreary month in Helsinki, November is cold, wet, and dark, with daytimes feeling much shorter. While the city lights up beautifully for Christmas, the prevailing weather conditions during this month can dampen your travel experience.
Don’t Skip Suomenlinna Fortress
A visit to Helsinki is incomplete without a trip to Suomenlinna, a UNESCO World Heritage site. This stunning island fortress is easily reachable by ferry and offers a unique glimpse into Finland's history. Historically significant and visually appealing, consider bringing swimwear for a refreshing dip during warmer months.
