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.

 

Fiskars

Fiskars is about 10 km from Billnäs and  it is a very popular with summer visitors. Here are pictures from this lovely town I visit at least once a year.

This is the path to our summer-house for the past 19 years. One of the best moments every sunny day is breakfast and coffee outside on the patio. I see this view, watch the light play through the trees,watch the shadows move, listening to the birds, nature, When the kids were young, the silence, no fights coffee before they woke up …best moment of the day.
