SUOMENLINNA FORTRESS | Sveaborg | HELSINKI FINLAND Travel Vlog

- Suomenlinna Fortress ( Sveaborg in swedish ) as just a short ferry ride away from the historic city of Helsinki Finland. Renowned for its historic integrity, and architectural beauty Soumenlinna is one of the top sights in Helsinki and a Must visit while in Finland.
Suomenlinna is accessible only by water. A ferry service runs from the Market Square to Suomenlinna throughout the year. During the summer season, a "water bus" is also available. The guest harbour in the middle of Suomenlinna handles visitors arriving by their own boats.
The trip to Suomenlinna takes 15-20 minutes and offers magnificent views of Helsinki and the surroundings from the sea. Although our visit was during the Summer, the cold winter months, offer an incredible ice covered water experience that shouldn't be missed.
Suomenlinna fortress broke ground in 1784 after the Swedish owned territory had been in constant conflict with its Russian neighbors. While the fortress took little part in actual battles, it did provide a number of ships to support the naval efforts having been equipped with a dry dock during construction. Suomenlinna finally feel to the Russians in 1808 after only small skirmishes. The Swedish surrender is still a mystery.
During the Russian Era, Suomenlinna acted as a fortress to protect the second jewel of the Soviets, St Petersburg. It actually saw very little action until the mid 19th century, and by that time had fallen into severe decay. The only real wartime action Suomenlinna faced was during the Crimean war of 1853 between Russia and Turkey and was in no real position to defend against such an attack.
Finally, after Finland's Independence, the Finnish reclaimed the fortress in 1918 and gave it its current and widely accepted name: Suomenlinna. Repairs have been ongoing since then and the fortress itself has acted as a historical tourist attraction since then.
If you make the trip make sure to check out the Suomenlinna Museum on the island for more exciting details about the history of the fortress and finland facts.
The best resource for additional information can be found on the Official Suomenlinna website:

The layout of this fortress is so similar to El Morro in Puerto Rico. This would certainly be a must for us if we go to Helsinski. Love that you're showing us a different perspective.

Hello
Interesting and beautiful ...
Life is like a salamander, It changes the color of each day, ... Each day is a different color ... There is no same day. ... Even if it seems that it is boring, uninteresting, ... Life plays with colors, Good has fun with us ... There are dark, gloomy days, When it's hard and bad for us, But a nice smile is enough ..You have the palette in your hand, You have new ideas every day, So choose the colors of the days so that they will be more colorful. Have a great weekend, I send greetings :)))

Sveaborg is the real name, not Soumenlinna.
Really love your opening shot as it really shows off the shape of the fortress walls along the island. Looks pretty cool! We quite enjoy old fortresses and castles and also looks like a nice boat trip to get out there too!
