This monument is called "Kontakti" by Tapio Junnila, 1974. I don't know if those two are blowing bubble gum or if it's talk bubbles coming out of their mouths. Or maybe their faces just dropped off. Anyway, it's on a school yard and, with that in mind, it's rather clean, isn't it. No graffities.

If you are travelling and would like to use a computer to check your e-mail, where do you go? There are no Internet cafes at Kerava. However, at the library, there are some computers that you can use free to access the Internet or for whatever purpose you need. Please note the PC's reboot at 15 min intervals. If there's nobody in que, you can login again and continue surfing/working but if someone's waiting for their turn, you must let them have a go. Oh, and you should also be aware that there's video surveillance.

Changing lights and colours, changing water showers from the many fantastic artifacts in the fountain this work of art is complete with music composed especially for it.

Finland's first ever circus and fair ground was established in Kerava in the 1880's so the town has long traditions in this field.
Every year, in mid September, there's a traditional circus fair at Kerava. Then the center of town is filled with fairground gear. Come to see free circus performances, take a ride in for example a roller coaster or a carousel and enjoy a world of tastes at the dozens of street kitchens. Great fun for the whole family.
Arranged by the local sports society to support local youth sporting activities.

This old locomotive is called Heikki and it's received a roof over it and a fence to protect it. It was made in Tampere where about 50 of Heikki model were manufactured. You can find this Heikki locomotive stationed at Kerava railwaystation, on the east side of the tracks. It's in beautiful condition and operational because it was fully repaired in 2000.

It's a small but beautiful park in the middle of town. Notice the yellow paving: it's supposed to be the Kerava yellow. I've submitted pictures for all seasons.
