    Temppeliaukio

    The 'Church in the Rock' is the most striking piece of religious architecture in Helsinki.

    The chuch was hewn from a huge chunk of granite, the walls left as jagged bedrock, into which a concrete altar was poured. The copper roof seems to float above the church as the light come from a circular window on to which the roof sits. A proper 'wow' moment.
