This is the main street in Helsinki called the Mannerheim Road just passed the Parliament Building. It's the longest street and other streets leading to very many different parts cross this one along the line. On the left is the Sokos department store and further along the oldest and most prestigous store called Stockman. On the left is the Forum shopping center in four levels. In the middle you see one of those trams mentioned previously aproaching. To the left from this point is the railway station and to the right is the new built in bus station and shopping complex Kamppi (which we'll come to a bit later). A corner of the modern art museum Kiasma is showing at the very right edge of the picture.
Before we look at Kamppi we'll explore a few other bits and pieces. This building is the Natural Science Museum where you can enjoy and learn about the origins of life all to the species belonging to the finnish flora and fauna. The statue outside the entrance is an elk (amer. moose).
