| Description | "Walkapolis leads you down unique routes and rarely trodden side paths of the city. Along the walking routes are displayed startling miniature works by various artists, including performances, music and dance. You may choose between two different tours that portray Helsinki in different ways. One route takes you to the concrete jungle of Kallio’s alleys while the other shows the wild mid-city nature of Eläintarha. In Walkapolis private and public spaces as well as experiences of art and the city comment on each other vividly. |
