Tips from locals
An old hospital, which has been transformed to an art community. The scenery and nature is very for a walk. Also great for picnics and swimming in the summer.
Lapinlahti is an old mental hospital, nowadays full of artist’s ateliers, healers and entrepreneurs. There is a cute coffee shop / lunch place Lapinlahden Lähde. Next to the beach in Venezia building there is a coffee shop as well and a really special bakery. There are also changing exhibitions, possibility to rent a sauna and a cute little beach.
Former psychiatric hospital that is now a culturally vivid area with a beach, community garden, cafeterias and lots of nice picnic spots.
The old loon house grounds are located in a picturesque area. There's a good secret picnic spot right at the end, behind the building where they used to have a beach for girls suffering from eating disorders.
