Linja Playground in the heart of Kallio has recently been completely refurbished. The designer of the outdoor section of the park has done well in taking children of all ages into account by dividing the park into sections that our suitable for kids of different ages. There are pens aimed at the smallest toddlers to large climbing structures for school-aged children. The park ambiance is calm, even though situated in the middle of the busy Kallio neighborhood. The easiest way to get to Linja is by metro to Hakaniemi metro station.
Pienten Helsinki feels this is a jewel of Helsinki, well worth the visit by any family wanting to play!
