I love the Thursday Doors challenge! It gives me an opportunity to look at Helsinki differently. I like this door to what I think is a tailor’s shop because of the relaxed men having a morning coffee in front of it.
Next to their shop, is the Thai Embassy. Any door looks grand with the Embassy logo above it.
The same door from inside. I love these old stairways. To think of all the people who have walked these stairs in the years. The Embassy is on a street called Bulevardi. It was a high end street with expensive apartments even back in the day.
This door is from inside the Embassy.

Love that image of the two guys relaxing with their cuppa, watching the world go by. Great shot of inside the Embassy door, too.

Thank you Jean – I must say they looked very relaxed and I think I’ve seen them before when their shop was in a different location. So it must be a summer morning thing before starting their work 😀

That embassy entrance door is beautiful. I’m surprised to see that they let you photograph inside the embassy though – most of them are quite sensitive about this for security reasons.

Yes, it could be that they didn’t notice…. Yikes! It was only the entrance and corridor tho 🤗
