Suomenlina is the name of a island, close to Helsinki, easily reachable by ferry, and one of the most popular attractions of the Finish capital. It's an UNESCO Heritage Site. Amongst the dozens of interesting features there, one will find the old dockyard, which actually it's one of the few things still active in the old fortress island.
It's not easy to find, so GPS will be your friend once again. When you find it you will see this orientation table which will guide you not only along the elements of the dockyard as you will see them now, but also back in time, showing where things use to be in bygone eras.
