About Helsinki Market Square

The great outdoor market at the heart of Helsinki — a waterfront kauppatori selling fresh Baltic herring, Finnish strawberries, mushrooms, reindeer meat, and smoked salmon from wooden stalls beside the harbour. The salmon soup from the market caravans is one of the best things to eat in Finland.
