It is old, it is primitive, but still it is a must-see during your travel to Finland. It is an 18th century Fortress of Suomenlinna, well known as UNESCO World Heritage Treasure, and is thoughtfully positioned on an island at the entry point of Helsinki harbour. Established during the time when Finland was a part of Sweden, it was earlier popular as Sveaborg Swedish castle. It was built as a well-fortified place for the Swedes against the Russians. Further, the Swedish architect, Ehrensvrd, took an initiative to erect its architecture in 1748, and it is said that to reduce the building pressure, large parts of the army was involved. However, the museum is a lovely island by itself that homes about 900 permanent inhabitants, and you can easily reach to Suomenlinna just by hiring a boat from Helsinki Harbour . It is absolutely an engaging tourist spot providing you a matchless option to bask in glory of complete rejuvenation. Since its inception in 1991, it has been an impressive place for Helsinki citizens to spend a quality time in ious activities such as family picnics, tasting exotic liquor, lie in the sun, and so on. It is a celebrated historical site, and is a genuine personification of European military architecture that never fails to grab your attention. The place is well-heeled enough to present you worth-remembering draws encompassing a good documentary about the history of the island. Plus, its top-notch services like restaurants, museums, cafes and galleries, along with spectacular flora and beaches, all are iconic features to keep you occupied throughout the visit.
