The tour will have a focus on Finnish national identity and how the modern political landscape and values were shaped by a history of war, revolution, and social responsibility.

Filled with a history of art, design, ingenuity, and intrigue, the Finnish capital has so much to see and learn that it is easy to miss. Let us show you! Hear the story of how Finnish national identity is formed and shaped, and how this builds the social democratic republic of modern Finland.

This tour starts in front of the Equestrian statue of Marshal Mannerheim, located next to the Kiasma museum of modern art. The tour will end directly at Ruoholahti Metro station, only one stop from Kamppi and the city centre or a short 10 - 15 minute walk.
