In a nutshell
Lots of traffic!
Gili_S Says: The Vantaa City Museum located in the old train station building. It is very small, exhibition changes every few months and the last time I visited this museum because the exhibition was about my favourite country, Namibia.
Gili_S Says: Heureka, the Finnish Science Center
Gili_S Says: The church was built here even before the city of Helsinki was formed, it is believed to be from the early 15 century and the oldest building in the greater Helsinki region.
Walk down the river bank & enjoy scenery
WanderingFinn Says: If you find your way to an area called Tikkurila in the city of Vantaa (metropolitan Helsinki area), try to find the Keravanjoki river bank. You can leave your car/bicycle in the yard of the exotic coffee house named "Veininmylly" (an old wooden mill; in red colour). Walk...
Veininmylly: Enjoy your coffee in an old mill!
WanderingFinn Says: I enjoy much more special, historical and theme places than ordinary modern coffee houses. Immediately the feeling rises in the old environment. They might not have the same amount to offer in their "menu", but I can guarantee what they offer it is good.This place also sells...
Zirpsis Says: A very easygoing place, Allu's Grill celebrates the racing careers of the F1 drivers Mika Hakkinen and Mika Salo. Allu was their first sponsor. The walls are covered with photos, banners, wreaths and other F1 memorabilia. You'll find the atmosphere is relaxed here.Open...

Classic Pizza: Best Pizza in Finland
Gili_S Says: No doubt, one of the best Pizza places in Finland, a place where you can really get a good pizza to enjoy your eating. Worth to pay more here then the socking wet pizza we usually get around here.

Hotel Vantaa: Wildest in Vantaa

Gili_S Says: There are many local trains from Helsinki and the whole region going to or through Vantaa. It is the fastest easy connection and journey last about 10 to 20 minutes depends on the locations.
Stockmann Jumbo: Smallest of its kind
nomadig Says: Stockmann Jumbo is the latest and the smallest Stockmann department store in Finland -- I'm not counting the outlets at the airport. Despite the size, the store caters for all aspects of living. There is also a miniscule Alko store next to the grocery department.For the...
GuntherHK Says: Shopping center in Myyrmäki.Over 120 boutiques. Food, clothes, electronics, gifts etc.
Sakke80 Says: In some suburbs (e. g. hakunila, havukoski, korso, malminiitty..), it's better to take a taxi at night. There's sometimes some people that can rob and/or beat you up in the worst case, specially if you go to an ATM from bar!The bars are still fairly safe though, and at...
Gili_S Says: The Kerava River is passing through here, a nice river with lots of plantations around, birds & fish as well. There are some spots you can even go and swim in the river.
