SkyWheel Helsinki
A 40-meter Ferris wheel by the South Harbour overlooking the port, Suomenlinna, and the old town, and featuring the world’s only sauna cabin.
The Helsinki SkyWheel stands at Katajanokka quay on the east side of Market Square, about 40 meters tall; one revolution takes 10–12 minutes. It overlooks the South Harbour, Uspenski Cathedral, the old town, and the Suomenlinna island fortresses in the distance. Its special feature is bookable sauna cabins, where four people can enjoy a sauna while watching the city. Standard tickets are about 16 euros; heated cabins are available in winter. It sits next to Allas Sea Pool, making the two easy to combine.
