    Gastropub Tuulensuu

    Grab a Belgian beer and a small plate at this moody gastropub. It is just a short walk from the church and the food is ready quickly, letting you keep your pace relaxed.

    Church of Alexander

    Walk into the small park surrounding the Church of Alexander. The red brick neo-gothic building stands out against the sky. Use the time before the sun dips to find a quiet corner with a view of the facade and the simple coloured wooden craftswork inside the open doors.

    Church of Alexander

    Watch the sunset. The sun sets toward the SW, casting a final glow on the church's exterior. The surrounding old grave stones add to the quiet atmosphere of the park.

    Amurin helmi

    End the evening in a cosy historic wooden building. They serve Tampere specialities and homemade bread to go with the brew. It is a warm place to digest the day and the beer.
