Few things are more Finnish than "Pesäpallo". You can watch this game played in summer also in Tampere, in our Manse PP stadium!

I love walking on the "Niihama Nature Trail" just 3.5km from Tampere's railway station, especially at night just holding my flashlight!

"Pyynikki Beach" in Tampere, on the coast of Iidesjärvi is worth visiting throughout the year, especially during the height of winter - it's just so picturesque!
