- The price of the traintrip Helsinki,Finland-Moscow,Russia-Beijing,China
- has been around 3500 FIM, (approx. 700 USD) return. This was ,however, the
- price about two years ago. But the point, why I wrote you, is that the
- trainfares will be reduced by 30% in january, so if you are
- planning a trip there, you maybe ought to wait a while.
