Last resting place of famous Finns and lots of other people, Hietaniemi Cemetery in Helsinki provides a quiet place in a quiet capital city.
On my first visit to Finland, I ended up staying at an old couple's place in northern Finland. They took me to a funeral, and I can still remember it: we were in the middle of a forest, the wind was blowing softly through the treetops, and the mumbling of the Finns to pay their last respect to a friend and relative that had departed this world, was impossible to understand but still impressive. It was a very natural funeral. While walking in Hietaniemi cemetery, probably the largest of the country, those images came back to me, and again, I heard the wind blowing through the treetops.
