Winter in Kaivopuisto, Helsinki

Kaivopuisto is a well-known park in Helsinki, Finland, located in the south near the Gulf of Finland. Kaivopuisto was established as a public park in the early 19th century, and it underwent various transformations and enhancements during the late 1800s.

During this period, the park became a favored destination for the city's residents, offering a peaceful retreat from the bustling urban life. The green lawns, walking paths, and scenic views of the sea made Kaivopuisto an ideal spot for leisurely strolls, picnics, and various outdoor activities.
