Helsingin kaupunki Vaihde 09 310 8771 TULE JA TUTUSTU www.hel.fi/liikunta STADIN SAARIIN Liikuntavirasto ei vastaa mahdollisista muutoksista. Helsingin vesiliikenteen aikataulut 2017 Helsingin merellisyys Helsingin merellisyys tarjoaa loistavat mahdollisuudet nauttia ulkoi- lusta ja lähisaariston palveluista. Kaupungissa on merenrantaa yli 130 kilometrin verran ja sen edustalla on yli 300 saarta, joista useat ovat virkistyskäytössä ja niihin on säännöllinen vesireittiliikenneyhteys. Ruotsin kuningas Kustaa Vaasa perusti Helsingin Vantaanjoen suulle vuonna 1550 kilpailemaan Tallinnan kanssa Itämeren kaupasta. Nykyi- selle paikalleen Helsinki siirrettiin 1600-luvun puolivälissä. Helsingistä tuli 1812 Suomen suuriruhtinaskunnan pääkaupunki ja 1917 itsenäisen Suomen pääkaupunki. Valtaosan Helsingin edustan saarista omistaa Suomen valtio, joista osa on myös puolustusvoimien käytössä. Helsingin kaupunki on toinen suuri saariomistaja, jonka virastot hallinnoivat noin neljäsosaa saarista. Yksityishenkilöt omistavat saaripinta-alasta noin kymmenen prosenttia. Loput saarista kuuluvat yrityksille ja yhteisöille. Muutama luoto on jakamatonta maa-aluetta. Vesialueista suurimman osan omis- taa valtio ja Helsingin kaupunki. Kalastus – kireitä siimoja Saarissa kalastus on pääsääntöisesti sallittua. Helsingin merialueella on tavattu noin 60 kalalajia, muun muassa meritaimenta, kuhaa ja siikaa. Jokamiehenoikeudella kalastaen saat helposti kalakeiton ainekset. Onkiminen on maksuton yleiskalastusoikeus, jonka harjoittamiseen ei tarvita lupaa. Kalastuslaissa -

LEHTINEN EDITOR'S PREFACE The Olympic Protocol requires organisers of Olympic Games to publish as early as possible a printed report of the course of the Games. More than two and a half years, however, were needed after the Closing Ceremony of the XV Olympiad Helsinki 1952 for the completion of the present report. The main reason for this delay is that the sifting and condensing of an extremely heavy mass of material was entrusted to a single individual. Responsible for the contents of the report is the Organising Committee, whose representatives have examined the ms and given it their final approval. In the collection of material the Editor has been assisted by Risto Laakasuo, M.A., Sakari Lahtinen, M.A. and Miss Anna-Maija Helminen, all of whom were employed in the Games machinery already during the stage of preparations. For material amendments to the text the Editor is indebted to Major General Yrjö Valkama, Sports Director in the Games, and to Mr. Eero Petäjäniemi, Director of the Press and Public Relations Division. -
