In a nutshell
Sunny Vaasa

gubbi1 Says: Outside of Vasa on the sea you will find many islands. That is the Kvarken Archipelago, which is set on the list of World Nature Heritages of the UNESCO. These island provide some opportunity to discover them on hiking trails. I think this is the best way to experience this...
MikeAtSea Says: The Vaasa Church was planned by architect C.A. Setterberg and consecrated in 1869. The church built in an English neo-gothic style has a capacity of almost 900 people. The last restoration took place in the year 2000. The first Vaasa Church was destroyed by the Vaasa Fire in...
MikeAtSea Says: Whilst visiting the archipelago one can admire the typical Finnish Summer Cottages, some displaying very unique styles of local architecture, as well as saunas and even one the most well preserved fishing villages in the area.

linda1501 Says: This is one of the best and most sophisticated restaurants in Vaasa.Gustav Wasa is an intimate cellar restaurant in the centre of Vaasa. This former century old coal cellar has been turned into an inviting restaurant filled with a calm and relaxing atmosphere. The food is...
Turska Says: Actually it has been so long since I was here, that even the name has changed. I belive it was Waskia (I prefer Finnish names at Finnish restaurants, so it was better!), but it is a place where most people take tourists for a drink at least. Why? Because of the terrace at...
Turska Says: My siter knew how much we love tasting new beers, so she guided us to go here. They have around 80 different beers. We eevn found some we hadn´t seen before.Place is quite typical Irish bar. Music was not so good anyway.. But luckily not so loud. Too "trendy" music for...
Hullu pullo (Grazy bottle): Live music, mostly rock
Turska Says: This bar has been in Vaasa quite long. When I was just at the age of getting in to restaurants, I visited it with my sister, who lived in Vaasa. They had tables and chairs at the ceiling, now there is only one table and two chairs.They do have lots of live music in here. We...
jarto Says: All the roads go to Vaasa. Well, at least it's easy to get there. You can take a flight from Helsinki or Stockholm, board a train from Helsinki or take the ferry from Umeå, Sweden. Regular bus tours are also arranged from anywhere around Finland.A friend of mine also arrived...
Rockjet Clothes: Rock and gothic in Vaasa
Turska Says: Why here isn´t just "clothes" to choose for as a type? There are clohes for women, men and also some rock-attitude kids. (Or should I say parents who want to buy these for their kids ;) )They had lots of rock-band t-shirts and hoodies. I think there is less womens clothes...
HS centre: Small shopping centre
Turska Says: Some other shops than Rewell centre, For example Seppälä, one of most popular clothes shops´s (a chain- store) sellinmg reasonable priced fashion. Clothes. Anttila is a supermarket also, so you can buy even food. Not so expensive shops, about average.
Rewell centre: Biggest shopping centre of Vaasa
Turska Says: There´s 60 stores at Rewll centre. If you don´t speak Finnish or Swedish, the page isn´t so good for you, but you can see the names of the shops in web page. Everything? Not the most expensive shops, but not only cheapest ones.
MikeAtSea Says: Even though one is in Finland – Swedish is a main language of the town of Vaasa. Hence all street signs and many shop signs are in both Swedish and Finnish.
Are there actually any dangers...
Toby_Swiss Says: Are there actually any dangers in Finland? Dangers not, risks maybe, like following: Don't ever dare to sit outside on a public place with a lot of bottles of alcohol. It will definitly happen that a crowd of 10 drunken teenager girls come to you in order to get any drinks!...

Cycling through the steers of Vaasa
Capricornus Says: Well, I'm a cyclist so I've beaten nearly every road in Vaasa. The best thing about cycling in Vaasa is that you can easily get out of the downtown. Just five to ten kilometers and you're in totally different milieu. There are also many smaller roads to go so that you can...
