"A weekend at Porvoo, recommended!" Porvoo by kimmo_v


Porvoo Travel Guide: 318 reviews and 482 photos

We went to spend a nice and easy weekend at Porvoo, just to feel the atmosphere of the old town(second oldest city in Finland). We accomodate at "Porvoon Mitta", the hotel that has just opened few weeks before we came there. Highly recommended hotel with excellent location, nice restaurant next door("Timbaali") and own sauna at your room(Captain-room).

Porvoo church

We visit that church on saturday and sunday(27.5.-28.5.2006) and tooked few photos. On the early morning 29.5.2006 someone burnt the roof down, and at the same time almost the whole old town(luckily it wasnt windy weather at that night). The guy get gought, and new roof will be built a.s.a.p. Estimated time is, that the new roof will be on at the end of the 2009(if i recall right).
