Why is Helsinki so boring?
Why is Helsinki so boring?
Architecture is outdated
why is it so clean and there is not a single neglected facade or run down building?
it would be much more interesting if there was some architectural chaos and mismanagement there
Capitals are always boring. The only good one I have visited is Tokyo and that's still not the best city in Japan.
Helsinki rhymes with Beksinski
Capitals are always boring.
uhhh sorry to say it like this but...
it's not true outside Scandinavia
I read filename as Finland Bog Cover
Russia built that city so obviously it must be unappealing
Did you know that there was a band from my country called Architecture In Helsinki?
Been true in the 10 or so European capital cities I visited, same in the US, Canada, Japan, Australia, Indonesia, South Korea and Russia.
wtf it's true
Australia truly has everything
I knew that I forgot it because it's an irrelevant piece of information
helsinki more like smellstinky lol
have a Russian orthodox church as the tallest and most visible building in your city
humiliation ritual
well, at least it's cheap (comparing to wages) so that boredom is actually a positive thing
Sir, it's a Lutheran church designed by a German.
designed by a German.
it doesn't make it less humiliating then
is there anything designed by an ethnic Finn in OP's pic?
I hope not, but probably. Helsinki is death when ti comes to architecture, particularly regarding the color scheme. Should be torn down to the ground and rebuilt.
perhaps a reflection of the culture
polish people are hella funny
Should be torn down to the ground and rebuilt.
hey, stop with that swedophobia!
we are the Finns of the south.
Pal...it's over. It's just women now with 1/8 Fenno-Swede ancestry who have a Swedish flag in their bio on social media in the Helsinki melting pot anyway. American tier LARP.
i wish i could watch a romantic comedy show set in the 1950s about a Fennoswede going to Stockholm for business purposes and everyone mocking him for his Moomin accent + these slight cultural differences between Sweden and Finland he's not used to but at the end he accidentally stumbles upon a nice ethnically blonde Swede girl who falls in love with him and helps him turn into a REAL Swede and settle down together in a cabin in rural Sweden.
also the movie should contain a lot of views from the 1950s Swedish cities full of ethnically blonde people
Helsinki is that weird place where westerners and easterners both feel at home
why are so many polish people here
asian men are the lowest in the dating hierarchy, while white blonde women are on top. but nice fanfiction
Did you get bullied in school for having autism? I know Slavs can be pretty cruel
Is it though?
please tell me such a movie exists
it's all me, i just love being bullied for having autism
Not necessarily a bad thing. Altough in Helsinki there's lots of things to do
Explain the not boring city
Boredom sets to the boring mind
helsinki and kuopio are the only non boring cities in finland
There's a building not too far from where I live in Helsinki where a drug dealer lives, his junkie customers camp in front of the door to the building and when they get inside they cause all kind of trouble, threaten people who live there with violence, leave trash all around the stairway and even sleep there. The police is over there every day to throw the junkies out. This has been reported in the news and social media
hs.fi
and yet im still sure this building inhabited by junkies is perfectly maintained without a single scratch on its facade
i don't know how firsties do it but every time i heard about whatever hood/house in whatever firstieland that is reportedly "a ghetto" and then I check that on GSV and it always turns out to be yet another firstie disneyland where you feel like you can eat from the floor because it's so clean and well kept
HELL-sinky
-hell that keeps sinking more
It was always meant to suck
Ur murther LOL!
here's an apartment being sold in the building
etuovi.com
yeah, that looks exactly like what i imagined a junkie-occupied flat in a firstie disneyland to look like
inhabited by junkies
they don't live there, they are intruders
we need more excitement in the form of burning cars, grenades exploding and gang warfare like Stockholm
it's the only habitable piece of land they own, they better take care of it.
Zdzisław Beksiński was a Polish painter, photographer, and sculptor specializing in the field of dystopian surrealism
kek that makes sense
the rest of the country is far more habitable Helsinki
finnish thread about finland
finland has the most posts in the thread

you see that beautiful waters, forests, old fort.. and then you decide to build playmobil blocks
problem?
no problem at all, the smaller ones are cuter anyway
