Finland's oldest city.
Turku was founded at the river Aura already in 1229. The historical city is currently a modern city that can offer a lot, for example museums, art, music, Finnish design stores, etc. You will find the enchanting city spirit by taking a walk along the Aura River - from the main church to the Castle - the two city landmarks. For the locals as well as for the visitors the riverbanks are the place to see and be seen.
Here in the urban atmosphere you find a great number of cafés and top-quality restaurants. A visit at one of the Riverboat restaurants are also a must…
Mix culture with the archipelago.
The archipelago is a pure paradise for anyone who likes the peacefulness and quietness. With small or big boats you can easily reach one of the 20 000 islands existing in the Turku archipelago. But you can also enjoy the nature and seaside by following the Archipelago Ring-road" that takes you on a 200 km trip over bridges and islands.
Turku offers everything!
Turku is an old but still modern city directly on the river, by the sea and with wonderful nature. Just a few kilometres from the city centre you can hike, bicycle, go fishing or what about playing golf directly at the seashore?
