South Harbour, Helsinki


Thank you Leena for this pretty card. What a nice picture the aerial view of South harbour makes. Amongst the many buildings in the background is the imposing Cathedral easily identifiable by its blue dome in the centre of the picture.
South Harbour is a bay and harbour area immediately next to the centre of the city of Helsinki, Finland. It is the largest passenger harbour in Finland, and 5.4 million passengers travel through it every year. Most of the harbour's traffic is to Stockholm, Sweden and Tallinn, Estonia, and cruises. In summer, there is a lot of small ship traffic.
