Take a tour of Helsinki Cathedral in Finland – part of the World’s Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats. Standing on a small hill in the center of Helsinki is a remarkable old building. Gleaming in Neoclassical white is the extraordinary Helsinki Cathedral. Arrayed around the top of the cathedral are zinc statues of the Twelve Apostles. The green roof is composed of a single large dome surrounded by four smaller ones. The six pillars and temple-like fronting of the Lutheran church is reminiscent of the Pantheon. The inside of the cathedral is spacious and well-lit from the domed ceilings. Helsinki Cathedral is positioned at the head of the expansive Senate Square, which complements the church.
