Helsinki Central Station, the most visited building in Finland, has been a bustling transport hub since its opening in 1919. Located in the heart of Helsinki, the station’s distinctive art nouveau design is the work of architect Eliel Saarinen. Notable for its pairs of statues holding lamps on either side of the entrance, the station sees an estimated 200,000 passengers daily. Today, visitors can admire the architectural details and experience the vibrant atmosphere as they pass through this historic and functional landmark.
