The Old Church of Helsinki (Finnish: Helsingin vanha kirkko, Swedish: Gamla kyrkan i Helsingfors), designed by Carl Ludvig Engel and completed in 1826, is an Evangelical Lutheran church in Helsinki. The oldest existing church in central Helsinki, the church was originally planned as a temporary building as the Ulrika Eleonora Church constructed in 1727 had become too small for the congregation and the new church, Helsinki Cathedral, would not be completed until 1852. However, the city's rapid population growth from the early 19th century onwards ensured that the church would remain needed, and also necessitated the construction of many other churches.

Punavuori (Swedish: Rödbergen) is a neighbourhood in the center of Helsinki, the capital of Finland. The name Punavuori (English: Red mountain) refers to red cliffs located between Sepänkatu and Punavuorenkatu. They were still visible in the 19th century, nowadays they are covered with buildings and pavement. Punavuori was traditionally a working-class neighbourhood, today it is known as a bohemian district popular among artists, students and hipsters. It is one of the most densely populated areas in Finland. After the new location and growth of Helsinki in the 18th century, Punavuori became the area next to the center. During the 19th century the district had a seedy reputation. Most of the brothels and beerhouses were found in Punavuori. The social problems were aggravated by quickly built rent-apartments for the poor. After World War II, the district went through a process of gentrification. Today Punavuori offers many trendy small shops and bars, nightclubs and restaurants. Important streets include Uudenmaankatu and Iso Roobertinkatu. In the old Helsinki slang, the district is called "Rööperi" (derived from the district's Swedish name).

Iso Roobertinkatu (Swedish: Stora Robertsgatan), meaning "great Robert street" is a street running northeast-southwest in the Punavuori district in Helsinki, Finland. Its shorter east-west counterpart Pieni Roobertinkatu ("little Robert street") is located near it in Kaartinkaupunki. Both streets are named after Robert Henrik Rehbinder (1777-1841). Iso Roobertinkatu is among the best known pedestrian and shopping streets in Helsinki. In the southwest the street, unlike other streets in Punavuori, does not extend to Telakkakatu or the sea shore but instead ends at the Sinebrychoff Park with stairs leading from the end of the street onto the cliff at the park. At the western end of the street a very short street called Kivenhakkaajankatu ("stonemason street") branches off to the left, ending at the intersection with Punavuorenkatu. In the northeast Iso Roobertinkatu reaches to Yrjönkatu, east of which it continues under the name of Pieni Roobertinkatu, but not exactly in the same direction. The Swedish names for Iso and Pieni Roobertinkatu were taken into use already in 1820. The Finnish names were Ropertin Suurikatu and Ropertin Pikkukatu ("Robert's great street" and "Robert's little street", respectively) in a 1866 map, and in the 1890s the names were changed to Iso and Pikku Robertinkatu, made official in 1909. The Finnish spelling of the names was fixed in 1928.Reserving Iso Roobertinkatu mainly for public transport and pedestrian traffic was first proposed at different boards of the city council of Helsinki in the 1950s. The part of Iso Roobertinkatu between Fredrikinkatu and Yrjönkatu was converted into a pedestrian zone after the city council approved a change in the zoning plan in May 1983. Helsinki's first proper pedestrian zone was opened on Iso Roobertinkatu on 14 September 1985.Streets crossing Iso Roobertinkatu include from east to west: Yrjönkatu, Annankatu, Fredrikinkatu, Albertinkatu and the short street Kivenhakkaajankatu, leading from the end of Iso Roobertinkatu to Punavuorenkatu running in the same direction. At the start of the street is the 1995 modern sculpture Viheltävä helsinkiläinen ("the whistling Helsinkian"), donated by sculptor Björn Weckström to the city of Helsinki.

The Helsinki Finnish Methodist Church (also known as the Helsinki Finnish Methodist Congregation; Finnish: Helsingin metodistiseurakunta; Finnish: Helsingfors finska metodistförsamling) is a Finnish Methodist congregation in Helsinki, Finland.

The Yrjönkatu Swimming Hall is the first and oldest public indoor swimming hall in Finland. It was inaugurated on 4 June 1928, and it took a long time until a second indoor pool was opened in Finland. The pool is located in the Kamppi area of Helsinki at Yrjönkatu 21b, and is owned by the city of Helsinki. The hall building was designed by architect Väinö Vähäkallio and represents the Nordic Classicism style. It was inspired by the Centralbadet swimming hall in Stockholm. The hall was originally privately owned, but was transferred to the Finnish Sports Federation in 1954 and to the city of Helsinki in 1967. The hall was renovated from 1997 to 1999.The Yrjönkatu Swimming Hall's first floor contains a 25 × 10 metre pool, two saunas and dressing closets at the edges of the pool. The second floor contains resting cabins, saunas and a café. The hall sells two kinds of tickets, providing access either to the first floor only or to both floors. Traditionally, people swam naked in the pool, but since 2001, the wearing of a swimsuit has been permitted. Men and women have separate days for swimming. In March 2012, the hall reported it was switching its original 1928 wooden sauna stove to a new one to cut down on the smoke damages to the Forum building. The new wooden sauna stove became operational in August 2013. It is 2.8 metres high and is thought to be one of the largest wooden sauna stoves in Finland.

Hotel Marski (or Marski by Scandic) is a hotel opened 1962 on Mannerheimintie 10 in Helsinki, Finland. The hotel was built by Alko-owned Arctia Oy and the nine-storey building with strip windows was designed in 1961 by architect Einari Teräsvirta. The hotel was housed in a residential building built in 1877 by Nikolai Kiseleff and designed by F. A. Sjöström. The name Marski (as well as the street name along which the hotel is located) refers to Marshal Mannerheim.Hotel Marski was opened on February 1, 1962. At that time, the hotel had 58 rooms located on the sixth and seventh floors of the house. On the lower floors was the restaurant, the department store Otra, which was reached by escalator, and the office space of the Kansallis-Osake-Pankki (KOP). The eighth floor was leased to the oil company Shell. The number of hotel rooms increased in the 1970s and 1990s as the hotel expanded into other buildings in the block. The furniture designers of the hotel and restaurant included Ilmari Tapiovaara.Hotel Marski was a meeting place for Finland's political elite for a long time, and President Urho Kekkonen, among others, was a regular guest. Until the 1980s, the building housed the M-Club, which was only open to club members. In addition, the building housed the Helsinki International Press Club, founded by the Helsinki Newspaper Association in 1962 or so-called Press club.In 2010, the property was purchased by Valio Pension Fund, with Alko Pension Fund as the seller. The hotel then had 222 rooms. The hotel was renovated between 2018 and 2019 and reopened in early summer 2019. The hotel now has a total of 363 rooms.Kahvila 7.01, a cafeteria located on the street level of the hotel, is named after Mannerheim, known as a regular man; Mannerheim reportedly wanted to drink his morning coffee at exactly one minute over seven in the morning.

DTM (originally Don't Tell Mama) is an LGBT nightclub in Helsinki, Finland. Founded in 1992, it is the largest gay club in Northern Europe. The venue was initially situated in Helsinki's Kamppi neighborhood, having since relocated twice: first, to Iso Roobertinkatu in Punavuori in 2003, and second, to Mannerheimintie in Kluuvi in 2012. Popular with gay men, DTM also caters to a straight and lesbian customer base. The club's playlists contain primarily pop songs, dance music, techno and Finnish hits, with live entertainment often taking the form of drag shows. Through an agreement with UK-based promoter Klub Kids, DTM began to host visiting performers from RuPaul's Drag Race in January 2019. The establishment has been in a state of temporary closure since June 2020, when it halted operation following a protracted conflict over noise complaints from a neighboring hotel. Its management has stated that it will reopen once a suitable new space is secured.

Mannerheimintie (Swedish: Mannerheimvägen), named after the Finnish military leader and statesman Carl Gustaf Emil Mannerheim, is the main street and boulevard of Helsinki, Finland. It was originally named Heikinkatu (Swedish: Henriksgatan), after Robert Henrik Rehbinder, but was renamed after the Winter War. The change of name was also suitable due to Mannerheim having paraded in along that road during the Finnish Civil War (1918), after German forces allied with Mannerheim's Finnish forces had retaken the city. That event is also portrayed in the landmark statue of Mannerheim sitting horseback. The statue is located along the Mannerheimintie just outside the modern arts museum Kiasma. The street starts at Erottaja in the city centre, near the Swedish Theatre and continues in a northernly direction past the Stockmann department store. It then continues as a main thoroughfare past the districts of Kamppi, Töölö, Meilahti, Laakso and Ruskeasuo, until it finally merges into a busy Tampere Highway (E12) leading outside the city towards Hämeenlinna and Tampere. (Geographically, the highway only ends in central Tampere, having become a small street called Kalevan puistotie, meeting the major street Kekkosentie.) Many famous buildings are located at or near Mannerheimintie. Besides the theatre and department store mentioned above, these include the House of Parliament, the main post office, the Kiasma modern art museum, the Finlandia Hall, the National Museum, the Helsinki Opera House, Hotel Marski, and Tilkka. There are many famous sculptures along the Mannerheimintie. There include the Three Smiths Statue and the Statue of Mannerheim near Kiasma. There are only two streets running across Mannerheimintie: Nordenskiöldinkatu overground, and Tilkanvierto below it as an underpass. There are very many other streets connecting with Mannerheimintie, but all of them either end at Mannerheimintie or continue across it under a different name.
