    Reposaari island
    by musti72
    Reposaari island is located outside Pori on the Gulf of Bothnia at the outlet of the River Kokem?enjoki. The island is about three kilometres long and a half kilometre wide.
    Because of its favourable location and this uniquely sheltered and deep natural harbour Reposaari was well known to tradesmen and warriors.
    The many beatiful wooden houses are witnesses of those times and together with a marvellous maritime scenery it makes an attractive place.

    This is an experience not to miss if you are in Pori during the Jazz Fesitval. The picnic concert is on the Island of Kirjurinluoto and goes on for the whole afternoon. There is enough space to sit down, eat and drink while linstening to world class jazz music!

    ..go to the Pori Jazz, big jazz festival.
    The Pori Jazz is a tradition, Year 2001 also brought a new dimension to the festival when the new Pori Concert Stadium was opened. The stadium is situated within walking distance from the city center and it will be the largest concert stadium in Finland offering room for 40.000 people. Pori Jazz wants to serve the audience also better via Internet and our new home pages will be introduced this autumn. Their great ambition is to carry out the widest covering jazz portal in the world within 3 years time. Pori Jazz – best feeling – unforgettable moments.

    The mausoleum of Juselius. He wanted it for the memory of his daughter who died at the age of 11. It is situated in the Käppärä cemetery. The original frescos were painted by the famous Akseli Gallen-Kalliala. They got destroyed and his son, Jorma Gallen-Kallela painted them later after the original sketches.
