Helsinki Day 2

I bought the inexpensive 3 day transport card and got on a tram, getting off when something caught my eye.

Lyhdynkantajat (Finnish for “the lantern bearers”) is a group of sculptures at the front door of the Helsinki Central Station in Helsinki, Finland. The sculptures were designed by Emil Wikströmand completed in 1914. Lyhdynkantajat is part of the facade of the Art Nouveau station designed by Eliel Saarinen.

200,000 people use the Helsinki rail station every day making it the most visited build in the country
