Explore Helsinki’s best Street Art Quarter
Description
This Experience is provided by a private local. Did you know that graffiti is a very popular street art in Helsinki and that it is often used to bring colourful and meaningful artwork to otherwise grey districts? In 2017 and 2018, East Pasila became the city's most vibrant street art district when around 50 pieces were created on walls, staircases, railings, and bridges, and our Experience will take us to explore all the vast variety of these works of art! While strolling through the area and looking at the amazing street art there, I will share with you the best details about the colourful and multi-faced Helsinki while we deep dive into the world of street art and culture of my city and country.

Our guide Elhan was very knowledgeable about the local street art. Not just the big, “Instagram-famous” murals, but also the smaller alley pieces that carry deeper stories about the neighborhood. What made the tour stand out was how much context was provided behind each work: the artists’ backgrounds, the political or social messages behind certain pieces, and how the street art scene has evolved over time. It didn’t feel rushed. There was enough time at each stop to take photos, ask questions, and actually notice details you’d normally walk past. I would recommend this store to anyone.

I had an enjoyable time with my guide Elham, she was knowledgable about the placement of the various artworks in this area. I did this tour in the winter so make sure you are dressed for the weather. It was also great to learn about the district that you will find the artwork in.
