Porvoo · Porvoo & the eastern coast · Finland
★★★★☆ Museum & culture
No admission charge for anyone. Parking or transport may still cost.
Finland's second-oldest town, an hour east of Helsinki: cobbled lanes, wooden houses and the row of ochre-red riverside shore houses that appear on every Finland poster. Free. Busy in summer, lovely and empty in the snow.
