	Helsinki - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Helsinki is also known for being unique in the way that for a city its size there is no part of the town that could be deemed as "slum", or explicitly inhabited by the poor.
		Helsinki is, however, perhaps even more famous for its numerous Art Nouveau (Jugend in Finnish) buildings, designed in the early 1900s and strongly influenced by the Kalevala, which is a very popular theme in the national romantic art of that era.
		Many of Helsinki's main attractions are also related to the sea, the Suomenlinna sea-fortress built in the 18th century to defend the city and the Seurasaari Island with its parks and open-air museum, the former being a UNESCO World Heritage site.

		Together with the Metrology Research Institute of the Helsinki University of Technology and the Centre for Metrology and Accreditation, the Department continued its development of a laser-relascope designed jointly with Masser Oy.
