Hometown Secrets: Tampere – unknown to most, admired by the rest

Already for the sixth year in a row, Tampere rated as the most popular
residential city in Finland. Desired by other Finnish citizens, Finland’s third
biggest city Tampere unluckily is still unrecognized by most foreigners. For
the sake of my beloved hometown, I want to give it the credit it deserves and
walk you through the different seasons of this hidden pearl, so get ready for
the journey!
Like many other Finnish cities, Tampere seems to wake up as late as the
first sunbeams of the spring start to heat up its streets. However, the
seemingly sleeping city stays awake during the winter. Our dark winter provides
a pretty good to reason to explore different cafés, restaurants and bars on
offer. Located in one of the loveliest little streets of Tampere and right next
to the beautiful rapid Tammerkoski flowing through the city, the waffle café
Tampereen Vohvelikahvila serves delicious waffles made with a secret recipe
already since 1992. This tiny and atmospheric café is a perfect place for a
cosy chill or meet up with a friend!

However, if you are in a need for something more filling (or just
thirsty for beer), you should head to Kumma Junk Bar & Lounge located in
the city centre. Kumma (meaning “strange”) is a brilliant combination of
everything concerning both the food and the interior. While enjoying your vegan
seitan kebab or perhaps a goulash soup, you can spot for example skis, kick-sled,
umbrella and video game console hanging on the walls. You can also gift your
own stuff for the decoration.
If you are not afraid of cold, there is a plenty of activities to do
outside as well. Kaupinoja is a perfect place for all kinds of winter
activities: it is possible to rent tour skates at the rental shop called Bikini
Bar and try a tour skating track on Näsijärvi. Other winter sports equipment are
also found at the Bikini Bar: maybe you prefer for example skiing or snowshoe
walking instead?

After the days start to get longer, a whole new bunch of activity
opportunities arise. The absolute summer must do is Pispala observation tower
and most importantly it’s delicious Finnish doughnuts! You should definitely
continue the journey and walk along the Pyynikki ridge through the forest and
its great views towards the Lake Pyhäjärvi. Soon you’ll arrive at one of the
coolest neighbourhoods in Tampere, Pispala. Home too many artists, Pispala is
located in the middle of two lakes. No wonder with its views and colourful
wooden houses this neighbourhood has been voted as the most beautiful one in
Finland!

In Tampere, nature is everywhere. A great way to explore it more is to
bike around the lakes: both Näsijärvi and Pyhäjärvi have their own lake trails.
Take packed lunch with you and enjoy! Another and a bit easier option is a
short nature trail around the Lake Suolijärvi. The trail is around 4.5
kilometres long so you will have time for other activities as well.

After the active summer, I personally really enjoy the autumn, its
bright colours and the feeling of calming down. We don’t even need to face the
chilling nights without a warming cure in Tampere since the city is known as
the sauna capital of the world with over twenty public saunas! Built in 1906,
Finland’s oldest sauna Rajaportti is a perfect place for an authentic sauna
experience. If you are brave enough to dip in the icy water, you should head to
Kaupinoja situated by Lake Näsijärvi. I promise the dip will be worth it! If
you are lucky enough, you might be able to see Northern Lights dancing in the
background while freezing in the water.

For a movie lover like me, autumn definitely calls for cinema! My
favourite cinema in Tampere is Arthouse Cinema Niagara – a small and
warm-hearted movie theatre with an extremely friendly staff. The cinema is
located in the beautiful Kehräsaari area. In addition to the newest releases,
Niagara pays homage to the classics. Connected with the movie theatre, a
restaurant Ravintola 931 offers a great place to share your thoughts about the
movie you watched. Alternating art exhibitions and gigs also take place in
Ravintola 931.

Four seasons, endless activities. I hope that you have enjoyed this
virtual journey around Tampere and you will pay this beautiful city a visit.
