Finnish Parliament

This picture shows the Finnish parliament, which is a very impressive building, with very strong features, showing how powerful the influence of politics in this society is .
But at the same it  also  shows simple and conservative characteristics,  with a very down to earth style. This very style somehow mirrors  the Finnish society, being very organized but at the same time very simple and with approachable people.
  That´s the feeling that i get, whenever i pass by the parliament.  In my opinion this a very  subtle message that probably not every body get.
I think that the Parliament should be  the starting point, for any tourist, coming to Finland. So somehow, they could get a first glimpse of what the Finnish society is like.
