By foot, a handful of islands. By bike, a continent.

The 15-Minute Helsinki
The 15-Minute Helsinki · 1 of 5

Only the bright core has it all on foot.

A "15-minute city" means daily life — work, shops, care, learning, somewhere to enjoy — within a 15-minute walk. By that test only Helsinki’s core qualifies: just 1,604 of 6,656 cells score a full five on foot.
