Tampere Finlandia

Tampere is the third largest city in Finland with around 213,000 inhabitants and a metro population of nearly half a million. Located between the two lakes of Näsijärvi and Pyhäjärvi, which are only connected by the narrow rapids of Tammerkoski, Tampere is truly pretty. The rapids were used for generating electricity and Tampere was the first industrial city in Finland when factories started to rise near the rapids that gave the city the moniker ‘Manchester of Finland’. Still a major industrial and business hub, the city has come a long way from its heavy industry roots and transformed into a pleasant and attractive town with wonderful sites, culture activities and nature to see around. Tampere Cathedral, known as Tuomiokirkko, is one of the city's best-known sites. Surrounded by a small park, this beautiful church looks just like a stone castle. Also the interior is well worth seeing with decorative paintings and stained glass windows. Another major religious building in Tampere is The Russian Orthodox Church. It is considered one of the most beautiful buildings in Tampere and the finest masterpiece of Byzantine-style architecture in the Nordic countries. Its seven domes represent the seven sacraments. Lake Näsijärvi and Lake Pyhäjärvi are great places for relaxing, swimming and sailing. Museums abound and most concentrate on Tampere’s industrial history. Amuri Museum of Workers' Housing is highly recommended to learn more about the history of Tampere. The kids and the kids at heart will enjoy the Moominvalley, a museum that outlines the history of the famous cartoon characters created by author Tove Jansson. With a nice city centre, a good night life, beautiful scenery and a good museums Tampere is a great place to unwind. Also worth exploring is the countryside around Tampere is amazing with rolling hills and stunning lakes with little cottages and saunas on their shores.
