Porvoo is a charming city located on the southern coast of Finland, approximately 50 kilometers east of Helsinki. Known for its well-preserved medieval history, this breathtaking city intermingles the beauty of cobblestone streets with a vibrant collection of 18th and 19th-century wooden houses, painted in delightful shades of red, yellow, and blue. Porvoo is famous for its iconic Old Town, a nod to its rich history, whilst Porvoo Cathedral offers a fascinating peek into the city’s past. The city is also recognized for its association with Finland’s national poet, Johan Ludvig Runeberg, whose home is now a dedicated museum.
