  • Ability Guidebook: I Am Going to Senate Square!
    Ability Guidebooks presents Explore Helsinki! I Am Going To Senate Square! A Step-by-Step Guide On How To Visit The Center of Old Helsinki. by Brett Bigham Senate Square is the center of old Helsinki. It is a large open plaza with a statue of Alexander II in the center. a i d e p i k i W - k i n o J Looming above Senate Square is Helsinki Cathedral. If you want, you can climb up the stairs to the Cathedral. The Helsinki Cathedral is a famous church next to Senate Square. People come from all over the world to see this beautiful neoclassical building. Sometimes the Cathedral has scaffolding next to it for workers to stand on. Do not go near the scaffolding. That area is for workers only. The steps going up to the Cathedral are very steep. Be very careful on the steps. On a sunny day many people like to sit on the steps in the sunshine. This is a good place to stop and rest. This is the view from the top of the stairs. From here you can see Senate Square is very big. Across the Square is Sederholm House. It is the oldest building in old Helsinki! Take your time to enjoy the view! Senate Square has famous buildings on every side. On the East side of the Square is the Government Palace. a i d e p i k i W - k r o W d e h s i l b u P f l e S - i r a a u g a j i m u L On the west side is Helsinki University.

    Unison with Oneself in God at the Sacred «Kamppi Chapel of Silence» Encontrarse con uno mismo y con Dios en la «Kamppi Chapel of Silence» Hee Sook Lee-Niinioja · Oxford Brookes University (Reino Unido) https://doi.org/10.17979/aarc.2013.3.0.5107 RESUMEN En 2012, como parte del programa World Design Capital, se inauguró en Helsinki la Kamppi Chapel of Silence, con el fin de pro- porcional a los ciudadanos un momento de silencio, relax y encuentro en el área más concurrida de la ciudad: la entrada del centro comercial Kamppi. A partir de estos hechos nos podríamos preguntar: ¿Cual era el objetivo real de todo esto? ¿El resul- tado de los deseos ciudadanos de estar con Dios, sin ser molestados por los turistas? ¿Tal vez una estrategia para atraer a más cristianos en una sociedad multirreligiosa? ¿Una nueva modalidad de caridad luterana al servicio de las necesidades de la gente? Mi comunicación analiza las relaciones entre las formas arquitectónicas y las emociones en los espacios sagrados, a través de varias iglesias finlandesas históricas. ABSTRACT In 2012, as part of World Design Capital program, Kamppi Chapel of Silence was inaugurated at the entrance of Kamppi shop- ping centre in Helsinki, providing a place for citizen’s moment of silence, relax and meeting in the busiest area. These facts raise questions: What was the real aim behind this? Is this the result of citizens’ wishes to be with God, undisturbed by tou- rists? A strategy for attracting more Christians in multi-religious society? A new way of Lutheran charity in service to needy people? My paper analyses relationship between architectural forms and emotions in sacred spaces through historical Finnish churches.
