Traveling with Children in Western Finland 
Tampere, Western Finland, Finland
Tampere... One of the big cities in Finland. The city centre is surrounded by lake and ridge scenery.Tampere is also one of the university cities in Finland. It gives youthful look and athmosphere. By day, you can relax from the busy athmosphere by shopping or sitting in cafés. At night, many bars and night clubs welcome you in to enjoy music and dance. Nightclub Onnela and Emma are two of the best places to spend your night of party... Various hotels and restaurants are there, when you need them. Hotels offer you lovely rooms and friendly athmosphere. Place to sleep well. :) Restaurants' food scale is variating. You can choose from steaks and chicken, mexican food, asian etc. Whereever you are, the food is great and tasty. During summer, you can also visit the theme park called Särkänniemi, which offer fun to kids and adults. Planetarium, aquarium and dolphinarium :) are the places to relax and enjoy. And of course... Spin,speed or splash? When wanting aerial rides can step aboard the modernised Time Clock, a dramatic and delightful experience. Corkscrew and Hurricane are waiting to give speed-lovers a good whirl.
A splash or two from a favourite ride, the Log River. The amazing rides of the theme park welcome you every day during summer. In Särkänniemi there is also the Näsinneula tower, where you have a brilliant view over the Näsijärvi lake and Tampere.

Tampere, Western Finland, Finland
The city center of Tampere is small enough to be covered on foot, but the bus network connects the suburbs and the downtown. All buses stop at or near the central square. Single tickets for adults cost around €2, but I know that adults with strollers travel for free. You may actually save money pushing around a Cabbage Patch Kid.

Pori, Western Finland, Finland
Mammas hemstad, alltså är den lite speciell oavsett vad som finns där. Det finns ett utebad och relativt bra shopping. Kirjorinluoto (ursäkta eventuell felstavning) är en park som ligger på en ö och där finns en minidjupark och lekplatser m.m. Staden ligger inte så långt ifrån en fin sandstrand.

Tampere, Western Finland, Finland
Tampere is a nice small city in Finland. Good weather in the summer and the city is very accessible with good transportation. We stayed just outside the centre about 10 mins walk. The lake front area is re-furbished and has good cruise trips on the twin lakes that surround the city. Beware that it is not cheap but the nightlife is good, particularly if you like rock or heavy metal. Locals are very friendly.
