Weekend travels – Porvoo

Summer  holidays for us this year means  spending time at our summer-house and making so visits to nearby towns,  getting to know and see some the local sights. Tourist visit these places so maybe we should also refresh our knowledge of some of the beautiful places in Finland. This is our forh place so far, few more to go .

Porvoo is Finland’s second oldest town, a beautiful city full of history. The timeless and unique atmosphere in Old Porvoo attracts travellers from all over the world.Six towns were established in Finland during the Middle Ages. Some of them grew to be towns without any official order having been issued. This was the case with Porvoo, which got the town rights after Turku in the 14th century.

You can read about the History from the link if interested.

 

Weekend travels – Barösund island

Barösund consists of a few larger islands, Barölandet, Orslandet och Elgsjölandet and hundreds of smaller islands and islets. During the summer months the life in Barösund is intense and hectic, as the inhabitants tenfold. Approximately 180 persons reside permanently in the archipelago community.First we took the car ferry across, then  we visited the market area, some docks and forests. Enjoying a beautiful summer Saturday here,
