Hello!
Today Qah and I wanted to go for a walk to one of the nearby forests. This time we got to climb some huge and high rocks, too.
After a longish climb we wanted to rest for a moment, so we sat on a rock and enjoyed the sunshine.
Then it was time to continue forward.
I climbed to a tree, too. It was fun.
After a while we left the rocks behind and the forest became greener again.
Then the path became rockier again, but we decided to follow it anyway.
There seemed to be something interesting on top of the highest hill of this forest.
It's the old and abandoned aerial beacon, which was built on 1930's when the airport of Turku was located in Artukainen. On 1950's the airport was relocated to it's current place. After that, the old airport served as a racetrack and now it's a location for HK-areena (also known as Turkuhalli) and the Fair and Congress Center. HK-areena is known as the home of TPS, the ice hockey team of Turku, it has also hosted the world championships of ice hockey and various other events.
The aerial beacon is sealed, probably for safety reasons.
Here you can see the rooftops of HK-areena and the Fair and Congress Center.
Look, how beautiful flowers I found.
We chose a different path to follow, when we left the forest.
Greetings,
Hanne
