Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What travellers are saying
- jordanellie41Longridge, UK1,247 contributionsThis monument stands in the park of the same name and resembles large church organ pipes. There must be a hundred or more silver tubes all moulded together to make one big creation. It stands around twenty five feet tall and is adjacent to his head placed in front of what looks to me like a fish. You'll either love it or hate it!Written 13 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- Heli PHelsinki, Finland7,695 contributionsThe famous Finnish chocolate brand Fazer gave the modern Rooster sculpture by Björn Weckström to the city when celebrating the centennial of their cafeteria at Kluuvikatu. The sculptor is best known internationally for his space theme jewellery collection including the Galactic tops necklace Princess Leia wore in the first Star Wars movie. It is still sold in solid silver around the corner at Kalevala Koru. The artist himself donated another sculpture, the Whistling townie to the city to honour the friendliness, helpfullness and tolerance of the people of Helsinki. It is situated at the newly renovated pedestrian street Iso Roobertinkatu.Written 21 March 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It stands in it's own little circular spot overlooking the sea and docked large ships. It's built upon a stone base and is carved in green stone. It depicts a man holding aloft his clothing in his left hand whilst cradling his child in his right. Underneath there are two women frantically clinging onto a part of the boat. Fabulous sculpture.Written 19 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- LolaGo1Washington DC, DC6,618 contributionsThere are statues of 4 men holding lanterns infronti of the Helsinki Station. Though it was raining hard, I had to put down my umbrella to take their pictures.
