Kuopio or Kuopijo like natives say

This fishman is located beside Kuopio market square and it's the most local thing I know from Kuopio.

I met this statue first time about fourty years ago and when I found the picture taken then, I add it to my Puopio pages.
The Market

Market square

The Market square is the hearth of Kuopio. If your shop is, let's say, 100 meters from the pole of the city, your are out off the business.

Harbour

The lake means harbour and there are several of them in Kuopio. If you are goming with your own boat, you are arriving to this place.
