Autumn feelings.

Autumn is one of the best times to visit Finland and especially Tampere. If you are lucky the sun is shining and you can see the nature giving its best with bright colours. We have been having enough rain this year, so hopefully the autumn is better.

I was talking with a customer last week who was very surprised about how Tampere has a lot to offer even at this time of the year! There's something to see and do every week from European Food Market to the city festival Lost in Music being held next weekend, fairs and concerts across the road from us in Tampere-talo, and of course you can just climb up to Pyynikki Observation Tower to see how the city looks like from birds point of view.

 Just to let you know in advance, we are going to have a secondhand market also this year, and the date is Sunday 25th November. If you are interested in selling your stuff, feel free to contact us to secure your stall.

One of the most beautiful places in Tampere is Pyynikki, a view from top of the hill or observation tower is worth seeing. It's also a great area for exercising all year round; walking and running in the summer and skiing in the winter. Take a deep breath, relax and enjoy the silence without any noise pollution.

Climb on top of the tower and see the city and both of the lakes, Pyhäjärvi and Näsijärvi at the same time!

The cafe is open every day from 9am til 8pm.

Cafeteria of Pyynikki observation tower is a nice and idyllic place to enjoy the best doughnuts of the city with a cup of tea or freshly ground coffee.
