by Gili_S You can get to Kuopio by flight, train or bus. I assume the easiest and not too expensive should be the train. Here in the photo the railway station Leave a Comment

by Gili_S Such a lovely city, not too big and a nice warm summer day, best was to walk, and as you can see, yes, it is warm enough in Finland for sandals on July. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

 Typical lakeland scenery (Kuopio) by brazwhazz The duration of the lake cruise was too long for us, but if you have time, you may want to consider a Savonlinna-Kuopio cruise aboard the MS Puijo ferry. The lakelands deserve to be visited on a boat and if both cities are on your itinerary, this trip may be just the thing for you. There are other stops along the way but I can't recommend any, having not seen any of them. The ferry service typically operates from late June to mid-August. Departures from Savonlinna are Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays at 9 a.m.; conversely, departures from Kuopio are Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays at 9 a.m. In both cases, the cruise lasts about 10? hours and ends around 7:30 p.m. For more information, check out the excellent online Savonlinna tourist guide at http://www.savonlinnatravel.com/brochures/english_savonlinna.pdf and search for "MS Puijo".

The market place of Kuopio is one of the nicest and the most lively ones in Finland. Here are the Town Hall and Market Hall located. Also you will find the famous „Veljmies“ (Brother) statue, which plays an imporatant role one the 1 of may, so called Vappu day, students big party holiday. The square is surrounded by a big amount of shops where you can buy almost everything you need. We were there on Saturday in late july. The market place was full of people relaxing at small cafes or buying different souvenirs and food at the square shops. It was the time of strawberries and raspberries, also black berries could be found there as all other possible season vegetables. It was a sunny day, all people were friendly and happy and we also enjoyed our stay there a lot! Leave a Comment

Kuopio is famous for its sports centre and tourism. Since some years World Cup in ski jumping takes place here (The second jump of Nordic Tournament) The Puijo-ski jump is located at 150m high hill Puijo, famous as well for its Puijo View Tower (This tv-tower was builit in 1963 and it is 75m high). If you are in Finland during winter time, dont miss this famous ski jump event and enjoy view from the tower!!!! Leave a Comment

Go to this city block museum, Korttelimuseo, and enjoy the atmosphere of a century ago. Very interesting displays of craftsmen's tools of trade such as weaver, tailor, shoemaker, pharmacist and so on in several buildings from mid 19th century till 1930. Sometimes, they have work exhibits, i.e. people showing how things were done in the past. Also changing exhibitions of photography. Really a lot to see and there's also a nice cafeteria should you feel peckish. If the weather is nice, you can drink your coffee in their lush garden. Leave a Comment
