Helsinki Railway Square - Helsinki, Finland - Wikipedia Entries on Waymarking.com

"Helsinki Railway Square (Finnish: Rautatientori, Swedish: Järnvägstorget) is an open square immediately to the east of the Helsinki Central railway station in central Helsinki in Finland. The square serves as Helsinki's secondary bus station along with the main Kamppi Center bus station. The north side features the Finnish National Theatre, and the south side is formed of the Ateneum classical art museum (part of the Finnish National Gallery). To the west side are the two ornate entrances to Helsinki Central station—a bigger one for public use, and a smaller one exclusively for the President of Finland and their official guests. The square is served by the Helsinki Metro system with Rautatientori metro station entrances at the south-west corner, and University of Helsinki metro station to the east.

During summer afternoons and evenings, the pub tram Spårakoff departs from the Mikonkatu tram stop in the square once per hour."

"Rautatientori (ruots. Järnvägstorget) on Helsingin ydinkeskustassa, Helsingin päärautatieaseman vieressä sijaitseva aukio. Sitä rajoittavat etelässä Kaivokatu, idässä Mikonkatu, pohjoisessa Vilhonkatu ja lännessä rautatieaseman ohi kulkeva Keskuskadun jatke. Rautatieaseman lisäksi torin varrella on useita historiallisesti ja arkkitehtonisesti huomattavia rakennuksia, kuten Ateneumin taidemuseo torin etelä- ja Suomen Kansallisteatteri pohjoisreunalla. Torin keskellä sijaitsee Aleksis Kiven patsas.

Rautatientori on tärkeä liikenteen solmukohta, sillä sen länsireunalla on useiden Helsingin sisäisten ja Helsingistä Vantaalle lähtevien bussilinjojen päätepysäkki. Tori on myös antanut nimensä päärautatieaseman alla olevalle Rautatientorin metroasemalle. Rautatientorin ohitse Kaivokatua pitkin kulkevat raitiovaunulinjat 3, 5, 6, 7 ja 9."
