==Laajasalo major district== The name of the major district number 603 in Helsinki is the same as the district of Laajasalo itself. As well as Laajasalo, the major district contains the areas of Santahamina, Itäsaaret, Vartiosaari and Villinki. Santahamina, Vartiosaari and Villinki form districts by themselves, but Itäsaaret is a subdivision of the Ulkosaaret district.
