Geocache Description:

[ENG] Old markethall.
PRECAUTIONS! Put the cache carefully back!!!.

[FIN] Vanha Kauppahalli,
VARO JÄSTEJÄ!
Kätkö pitää laittaa TODELLA varovasti takaisin paikoilleen ja ottaa varovasti,koska tiellä menee suunnattomasti turisteja ja jästejä.

[FIN] Infoa kauppahallista: on vuonna 1889 avattu Helsingin vanhin kauppahalli, joka sijaitsee Etelärannassa lähellä Kauppatoria.
Rakennuksen on suunnitellut Gustaf Nyström.
Nykyään halli on myös suosittu matkailunähtävyys.
Halliin avattiin kahvila maaliskuun alussa 1984.
Hallin keskeltä purettiin neljä myymälää, joiden tilalle 10-paikkainen kahvila rakennettiin.
Tupakointi hallissa on kuitenkin ehdottomasti kielletty.

[ENG] Like most of those spectacular northern destinations, you can’t accuse Helsinki of being a budget destination – but there are numerous cheap or free activities if you keep your eyes out.
One of my favourite stops in Helsinki is the old Market Hall, easy to find on the harbour, and a great place to visit.
whether you’re there in the depths of winter or the sunlight of summer
The Market Hall (Kauppatori if your map is in Finnish) is in a large brick building overlooking the harbour, and once you get inside you’ll quickly be overwhelmed by the range of foods and local products the various stands have on offer.
I admit only to buying some locally-made sweets, but there were plenty of more exotic foods to try, with a few reindeer products.
You can get more info about the Market Hall at the website but it’s only available in Finnish or Swedish.
– at a minimum you’ll be able to recognise that it opens every morning at 8.00am, and entry is free.
Please put the cache carefully back!
