Hakaniemi Market Square in Helsinki, Finland, has an open-air market every day during the summer (from the early morning to about 3 pm). All through the year, it has an especially big market on the first Sunday of every month. You can find clothes, souvenirs, bags, CDs & tapes, cards, glassware, kitchen and other utensils, spices, candy, food, and much more there. These pictures are of one of those Sundays, May 2, 2004.
