Lovely and peaceful even in winter. Contrary to some reviews that seem to suggest you can arrive by boat from Helsinki in February - you cannot as the water is well and truly frozen. You can...

10/10 recommend a visit and also purchase a ticket to enter the houses and everything. It's been terribly fascinating to see all the houses and to see how people back then lived like. There are also many very kind and friendly people who have answers to pretty much everything you could ask about the houses and everything connected to them. On top of that, the whole area is just absolutely peaceful and perfect to sit around and enjoy nature with a little drink and snacks. This was certainly one of my favorite places during my visit in Helsinki.

This is a great open air museum. The exhibitions and buildings are really good but the people who are working there are awesome. Ask them a few questions and you will hear great stories. Really worth the trip and the tiny beds made me laugh a lot
