    Default Flea markets in Helsinki

    That's what I am looking for. Usually, every city has at least ONE great flea market/peddlars market (if there is a difference...)
    Hamburg has, Berlin has, Munich has, and I am sure Helsinki !! has some, too.

    especially with clothes, books, design stuff maybe, nice beautiful things, cheap little things..... and and and...
    I need to know time and place, and what I can get there...
    THANX A LOT!

    There are several but should you try the one from the Animal Protection Association Shelter? they have pretty much stuff and at least the earnings go to a nice cause...

    Default Loppis or Kirppis

    Although not strictly flea markets, there are a lot of second hand shops about called Loppis or Kirppis. They usually have some very good deals....

    In the summer time the best one I know of is in Hietalahti. It's open during the day and in the evenings too. I don't know what their hours are off summer hours. I've been told that there is also a nice on in Itäkeskus on the weekends. Having just returned here and not being a big fan of fleamarkets myself, I'm not sure of the hours.

    Sorry I can't be more of assistance...
    Follow your bliss!!!
