A Sure Sign of Summer in Helsinki Are…

…the many (partially) closed streets.

It seems that pretty much every year when Helsinkians would want to enjoy the few warm summer months, there is noisy and dusty work going on the streets in a very central locations. In 2008 the old main street looked like this only a few hundred meters away from here.

This isn’t actually very disturbing site but I was able to include Helsinki cathedral in the background.

    That’s a nice looking cathedral up on the hill. Shame about the road.
