Rhododendron park in Helsinki

If you are seeking true peace of mind and you are visiting Helsinki around the midsummer, I suggest you to visit the rhododendron park. Those beautiful flowers bloom after the dark winter during the early summer. The blossom only lasts for a week so you have to time your visit according to the blossom. The best time is around the midsummer festival. But if you time your visit right, you can have a chance to walk between those wonderful almost tree-sized rhododendron bushes that give their best to the people that have come to see the beauty of the nature. Walking in the park is easy because there are wooden platforms with hand reels to walk on. The place is also accessible to the older people and cars can be parked right next to the park. This place is not known to most of the people visiting Helsinki. It’s located in Haaga district not far from the Helsinki-Tampere motorway. You can access the park by taking a train to the Huopalahti train station and walking 600 meters to the park. The address is: Laajasuontie 37, Helsinki. #helsinki #finland #flowers #rhododendron #park
