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.
Helsinki's railway station is all what you could wish a railway station to be: it is centrally located, is still large enough to handle traffic, and it has a unique design which makes it a memorable sight. When it was decided that Helsinki needed a new railway station in the late 19th, early 20th century, a competition was organised which was eventually won by Eliel Saarinen. He travelled through Europe to study railway stations. It was not until 1919 that the station was finally inaugurated.
