Located next to Finland's longest bridge, the World Heritage Gateway is the starting point of your visit!

Beautiful place to visit, go and spend the day exploring and seeing the islands. It really is unique in the Finnish landscape the small low ridged land and islands. Many cute houses and fishing huts all over the place. Wish I had more time there.

500 Million years ago a giant meteorite hit the ground and formed an impact crater size 7 kms! Now the soil is even and there are fields covering the area but it is still different from its surroundings and can be easily recognized from a plane. It is a fantastic place to visit if You suffer from a cosmic angst - Standing there in the middle I quarantee You are safe. The metorite won´t hit the place again. I promise. There are too thoudands of birds moving from north to south in fall and resting there. have you ever seen toudand of cranes, gooses or swans flying? This is probably the best chance to spot them in August in the whole Scandinavia. Climb up to the tower, take your binoclars or camera and take a look!

Brewery restaurant 3 kilometers from city central. Really nice atmosphere, excellent service and they have brewed national award winning beers with big selection and couple of own ciders too. Wine selection was also really nice and waiter had knowledge about them. Service was in finnish thought the person was swedish speaking most likely. English seemed top class also. Then about food I can only say that Black Angus was something so good that I don't have words enough. Jazzy old sounding R & B music was nice and the place was beautiful. If you like beer, wine and good food then go there. Everything was localy made. 5/5
