While no European capital city is truly new, Helsinki founded in 1550 is about as new in Europe as you can get. At a northerly latitude roughly the same as Anchorage, Alaska, Helsinki is somewhat off the main European tourist route, but visitors find the detour well worth it. Throughout Helsinki, visitors find echoes of the city's interesting and at times turbulent history: in its buildings, its parks, and even in its cuisine. Helsinki is one of the most vibrant and progressive cities in Europe a contrasting blend of ultramodern juxtaposed with historical. This is a city that is easy on the eyes: a mix of East and West, high fashion and high technology side by side. Visitors will delight in leading edge designs, the arts, interesting subcultures, luxurious hotels, and fine dining.
