}}Linnanmäki ({{lang-sv|Borgbacken}}, colloquially Lintsi, literal translation Castle's Hill) is an amusement park in Helsinki, Finland. It was opened on May 27, 1950 and is owned by non-profit Lasten Päivän Säätiö (Children's Day Foundation), which operates the park in order to raise funds to Finnish child welfare work. In 2017, the foundation donated a total of 4.5 million euros. Linnanmäki is the most popular amusement park in Finland. It has many rides of different sizes.[1] It also has other attractions, such as arcades, games, kiosks, restaurants and an outdoor stage on which different performers appear in the summer. Annually the park is visited by over 1 million guests. The park Linnanmäki is located just north of the city center of Helsinki. The park is located on a hill with a nice view of the city. The park feels rather compact and has no discernible theming; the rides and attractions are in close proximity. In addition to the amusement rides the park also contains the Peacock-teatteri, a historical theatre built in 1957 and known for its musical productions. In addition to the park itself, guests can also visit a Sea Life Centre, which opened in 2002. The park is open from April to October, while the theatre and aquarium are operational throughout the year. The park also featured Linnanmäen museo from 1996 to 2005, a museum facility which located next to the park's main entrance and housed several exhibitions every year. The park is easily reached from the city by tram nr 3, 8, 9 and bus nr 23. Rides and attractionsLinnanmäki currently has 43 rides, along with many other non-ride based attractions. The most notable ride in the park is the wooden roller coaster Vuoristorata, opened in 1951. It is the most recognisable symbol of the park, and was one of the first permanent rides to be built at the park. The oldest ride in Linnanmäki is Karuselli (a carousel), built in 1896. Linnanmäki has seven roller coasters. Major rides include three tower rides, a ferris wheel, a river rapids ride and spinning rides. The park also has a selection of family and kiddie rides. Admission to the park is free, and most of the rides can only be ridden with the possession of a ride ticket, or the more popular wristband, which allows the wearer access to all of the park's rides for the entire day. As of 2013, the wristband costs the same for each customer, regardless of height.[2] Current rides Roller coasters | Name | Manufacturer / Model | Type | Opened | Notes / Info |
