Sokos

A large department store next to the railway station. Good place for buying clothes, you can often find the same products here as in nearby Stockmann but at a lower price. On the downside, despite being a department store they have a rather limited selection of everything else. The restaurant at the top floor has a nice view of central Helsinki.

Address: Mannerheimintie 9
Getting there: Tram: 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 10, Metro: Central Railway Station.
