Seurasaari Island and Open-Air Museum, Uusimaa, Finland
4.5 (1.377 reviews) Spent Ranking #4 in Helsinki Historic Sites • History Museums
Excellent place
Seurasaari is an excellent place to visit. With an entrance fee you can enter the houses/buildings in the open-air-museum but you can also decide not to pay the entrance fee and just walk around and see the buildings outside. There's lot's to see. Somewhat half of the island is recreation area and you can sit by the sea on rocky waterfronts. There are some cafe's and museum shop too. Lovely an beautiful location and easy to travel from the city center by bus or tram.

good combo of old houses, beach view, island fun & walk
Seurasaari island provides you with a great collection of old Finnish houses and being an Island, also offers some great walk through some quiet greenery and of course the water view. You have the option of paying money to get access to the old houses & churches interiors which we did not take. You can do a good amount of viewing of houses without paying. Plus it gives great walking experience. There is a beach too, and if you pick a nice sunny day, it is worth spending sometime by the beach after your walk. You should keep at least 5-6 hours for a good experience, and ideally a whole day.

Nice even in winter
We went in mid March and the place was visited mainly by locals. Took bus 24 in front of Original hotel near Central Station. It was about a 15 minutes ride (last stop) to Seurasaari. No entrance fee in winter and museums are closed but you could still enjoy and view the historical buildings with commentary in English at each site. We spent more than 2 hours there appreciating the nature in quietness.
