Hands / take life into your own hands

Too many people go through life thinking that things happen to them. The truth is, we make things happen to us. While it is true that setbacks and road bumps are a very real part of life, the truth is also that we control our life. Take life into your own hands

Hiking in Porkkalanniemi

I’m participating in LetsBeWild.com’s Wild Weekly Photo Challenge. This week’s Challenge is: Hiking!

The area is characterized by the best of its rugged cliffs, at Telegrafberg , high on the hill is the best place to overlook the panoramic view of the open sea.In the rugged cliff forest there are  five Bronze Age burial place (heaps). The cliffs are slippery and hazardous particularly autumn when it rains, it should be taken into account in moving in the area. In the summer it is a beautiful place to spend the day.

Turku Cathedral

tina´s wordless wednesday # 88

Turku Cathedral  is the Mother Church of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland, and the country’s national shrine.It is also regarded as one of the major records of Finnish architectural history.
Considered to be the most important religious building in Finland, the cathedral has borne witness to many important events in the nation’s history and has become one of the city’s most recognizable symbols. The cathedral is situated in the heart of Turku next to the Old Great Square, by the river Aura. Its presence extends beyond the local precinct by having the sound of its bells chiming at noon broadcast on national radio. It is also central to Finland’s annual Christmas celebrations.
The cathedral was originally built out of wood in the late 13th century, and was dedicated as the main cathedral of Finland in 1300, the seat of the bishop of Turku. It was considerably expanded in the 14th and 15th centuries, mainly using stone as the construction material. The cathedral was badly damaged during the Great Fire of Turku in 1827, and was rebuilt to a great extent afterward
