Remarkable and enormous, Helsinki central railway station is a landmark in the Finnish capital which can be perfectly visited as a sight for who does not have to catch a train.
Inevitably, the visitor who is in no hurry to catch a train, is drawn to the more than life-size statues of men holding lanterns (or, as some say, globes) in their hands. They somehow give a human touch to the otherwise functional building, and from close up, look very serious in carrying out their task of lighting up the entrance of the railway station. From a distance, they could also be taken as guards of the building.
