You should definitely try one of the 3 million saunas we have in Finland! But to see the way the Finns have enjoyed sauna for the past centuries, traditional wood-heated Kotiharjun Sauna in Kallio is one of the best in Helsinki!
The normal Finnish sauna is rather an ordinary everyday thing and a chance to relax cozily -- and to socialize, which happens very easily at Kotiharjun Sauna even with complete strangers.
Weekends may be so packed that I personally might consider Sauna Arla just around the corner as a more tranquil option. Men and women have separate sides, though. A common thing to do is to have a beer or two drink at least water! But you cannot buy it at Kotiharjun Sauna! Bring your own instead, like the locals. You can even use the fridge at the entrance to keep them cold! Get full access to our Helsinki guide.
Nothing is overpriced here and everything is organic! Their selection is the biggest I've ever seen! Home to plenty of street art, it's no just dull grey buildings This garden neighborhood is perfect to walk around in and I love the events Even after moving away from the neighborhood, I keep returning for the authentic local Toukola spirit My favorite spot inside is Restaurant Story as it is like the heart of Vanha They're a phenomenon you just have to try for yourself!
It's also a cool flower shop with more than 20 years of history. Quality coffee too. The reason? San Francisco. About Spotted by Locals. Become a Spotter. Terms of Service.
