Hyvinkää, Railway hub city in Uusimaa region, Finland
Located 55 kilometers north of Helsinki, Hyvinkää extends across 323 square kilometers of land characterized by dense pine forests and granite formations.
The construction of the Helsinki-Hämeenlinna railway line in 1861 transformed Hyvinkää from a small settlement into a significant industrial center.
The Finnish Railway Museum in Hyvinkää preserves railroad heritage through extensive collections of locomotives, carriages, and technical equipment from different periods.
Regular train connections between Hyvinkää and Helsinki operate throughout the day, with journey times of approximately 40 minutes each direction.
During the post-World War II period, Hyvinkää Airfield temporarily served as Finland's primary airport before Helsinki-Vantaa Airport began operations.
