Porvoo is a small Finnish city less than an hour away from Helsinki that has all the ingredients for the perfect day trip from the capital of Finland: rich history, art, and delicious local food in the middle of stunning natural scenery. As you stroll along the cobbled streets, you’ll be surrounded by colourful old wooden houses. Step inside to find handmade chocolate, local art, and a range of organic products. Meanwhile, the narrow river flows alongside Old Porvoo, creating a serene atmosphere that changes with the seasons.
