The popular Esplanade Park, fondly referred to as "Espa" among locals, is the most famous park in Finland and the green heart of Helsinki. People come here to see and be seen, to listen to music and watch performances, and to enjoy picnics. The park was originally planned by the principle architect of Helsinki, Carl Ludvig Engel. The park is characterized by an architectonic style with its straight tree-lined alleys and flowerbeds. The rows of linden trees on either side of the park create a hall-like space.

Swimming at Allas varies depending on when you arrive. Morning swimmers are a tribe of their own, and they often come from closeby. Those who love our moonlight swims and special events come far and wide. At Allas, you can choose between a slow lingering and the fast lane of healthy living. Or choose both – it’s up to you. Our warm water pool and sea water pool cater to swimmers, movers, exercizers, sun bathers and lingerers alike. The warm water pool and the children’s pool are both heated to 27°C all year round. In the summer, children can swim either in their own pool or at the big pool with accompanying adults.
