Travelog post for: lucky-ducky

Here I am at the Senate's Square in Helsinki. That huge white building is the Cathedral (Helsingin Tuomiokirkko). They built it for over 20 years and it finally was ready for use in 1852. It's so pretty... There are 12 zinck statues on the roof, showing the 12 Apostoles. The statue down on the square is Alexander II, former ruler of Russia (and Finland, when this country wasn't yet independent). Don't I look handsome too 

There's a site with more photos and info, yet only in Finnish (English version under maintenance):
