Latest Lahti hotel reviews
Kaarina Says: There are a lots of good flea markets in Lahti. For example Lanttila (Keijutie 29), Cetori (Saimannkatu 54), Femmatori (Rautatienkatu 13), Flea markets of the Salvation army (for example in Ostoskatu), Fida (in middle of citymarket and Prisma of Laune) and Launeen...
Anttilanmäki- old finnish architecture
Kaarina Says: In Anttilanmäki you can see old finnish architecture. The area has also wan prizes. There are similar old houses for example in Onnelantie.
Kaarina Says: If you have got tired to all the city of Lahti and its happenings, one idea is to go to see real finnish forests. About 30 kilometers from Lahti in Lammi there is a hiking area called Evo. In summertime there is also guidance available, I think.
Kaarina Says: Trio is the biggest shoppingcenter in Lahti. One entrance is in the junction of Aleksanterinkatu and Vesijärvenkatu. I like Trio!
Kaarina Says: It is regulally arranged concerts with famous artists in Sibeliustalo in Lahti. As well the Theatre of Lahti is usually good but expensive. (All the entertainments are held in finnis language.)You can ask Lippupalvelu (for example in Sokosbuilding) or informationcenter about...
The familypark of Laune in summer (autumn, spring)
Kaarina Says: If you are travelling with (small) children, they maybe want also something to do. Usually children like the park.
Kaarina Says: For many years the city of Lahti has arranged waterorgans besides little Vesijärvi. You hear the music and the water is flowing in different colours in middle of the darkness.You can ask the information desk (if it is open) at what time the organs are working.
The harbour besides lake Vesijärvi in summertime
Kaarina Says: There are for example lot restaurantships, cafeterias, handicraftshop and simply benches to sit down. Sometimes there are happenings. The area is at it's best in eveningtime expecially in summer time there are beautifull sunsets to be watched sitting in a cafeteria.
SandiMandi Says: A new cafe gelateria in the Trio Shopping centre offers delicious Italian ice-cream (gelato) that they make on the premices. They have over 20 different flavours which vary daily. I tried cookie ice cream, which was so good! One (big) scoop cost 2,70 EUR. There was also...
SandiMandi Says: Coffee House belongs to a chain of cafes all over Finland. It's our favorite in our hometown and so we decided to try it in Lahti as well. The location is very good, right on the main shopping street Aleksanterinkatu, but from the outside it looks a bit shady, but it's only...
Teerenpeli: A pub like a living room
Piiu Says: Great place to have a beer or cider. Check out their own beers, ciders and whiskys. If you get hungry, try Sulami. Large toast with chicken, salami, tuna.. Sometimes live music and nowdays even stad-up sometimes. Like a living room to some of the locals.
Gili_S Says: During competition time there will be many stands where you can by souvenirs, flags, hats, scarf, gloves etc. If you are not from one of the major ski countries, I am afraid your flag will not be available here, so, remember to bring your own from home. (Nykänen, this one...
Gili_S Says: Here are few fans of the king of ski jumping. Janne Ahonen was breaking few records in ski jumping this season, he won the four hills tournament, the world championships and the ski world cup season. No doubt, the current king.
Gili_S Says: Make no mistake here, she did not speak Finnish or English, must be a French then, it is just that it has been long time since a Frenchman was successful around the ski jumps competitions, but we will keep hoping.
Ski jump legends: Risto Jussilainen
Gili_S Says: Well, not exactly a legend yet, but Risto Jussilainen is Zdenka’s favourite and there fore he is here as well LOL.He is from Finland and so far he won few world cup competitions. He was here in Lahti in 2005 and he finish 19th.
Ski jump legends: Janne Ahonen
Gili_S Says: Janne Ahonen. Is the king of ski jumping in the past 2 seasons. Winning the world cup, four hill tournaments both, 2 years in a row and also the world championship on the big hill this year. He is only missing Olympic gold on his collection and we hope he will achieve it...
