Park Walk - Tullisaari Park with Merchant Councillor Borgström

Merchant Councillor Henrik Borgström invites city residents to explore his park and gardens. He shares stories about his family's life and Helsinki in the 1980s. We walk around the area, examining the remains of elevated buildings and the beautifully restored park. We visit the piers where the gentry's sailing boats arrived from the city for Borgström's celebrations. Opera singer Aino Ackté purchased the villa of Borgström's son-in-law, and the Turholm festivities continued into the 20th century.

The park walk departs from the information board at Tullisaari Park on Tuurholmantie. The route is approximately 2.5 km long. Suitable for families with children and people with limited mobility who can walk at a leisurely pace.
