Hi Jun Chyi,

Yes this is very lovely are. From the city center near the rail way station is buss terminal. Or both sides of the railway station there is buss terminal. You need to go to the one called Rautatientori. From there you take buss number 71 which goes during the week approx every 10-15 minutes. Stop you need to get off is called: Vanhankaupungintie 1 or the next one called Katariina Saksilaisen katu 1.
Please find the Helsinki city transpotation route planner link where you can see the map and instructions and by changing the timetable you get the correct time and date suitable for you.
Hope this was usefull information and you find your way there. Its truly unique place! http://www.reittiopas.fi/en/?from_in=Rautatientori+Metro+Station%2C+Helsinki&from=poi*Rautatientori+Metro+Station%2C+Helsinki*2552422*6673565&via_in=&via=&via_time=0&to_in=Vanhankaupunginlahti&to=address*Katariina+Saksilaisen+katu+1%2C+Helsinki*2554677*6678825&hour=12&minute=31&timetype=departure&day=16&month=05&year=2012&cmargin=3&wspeed=70&method=1&stz=0&mc1=0&mc2=0&mc3=0&mc4=0&mc5=0&mc6=0&mc0=0&nroutes=3

Comment on Itäkeskus shopping mall – Biggest mall in Helsinki by Hmm

Largest shopping mall in Finland is Ideapark, close to Tampere. How could Itäkeskus be the largest in the Nordics when it’s not even the largest in it’s own country…

Hi Sanna, yes the new young owners Katja and Roope are very nice, but if you miss José, go and say hi to him at Hakaniemen tori. That’s where he has his café these days.
