Located in a small sheltered bay from the market, it is housed in a red brick building, the Vanha Kauppahalli. "The city by the water" is said to be a Finnish tradition that has continued since the 17th century. It opened its doors as early as 1889. For more than 100 years, I have witnessed changes in the political, economic and food trade in Finland. Architect Gustaf Nystrm borrowed from the interior market design of many other major European cities at the time, which ultimately made the building itself a beautiful tourist landscape. There are 64 counters in the market, each with a length of 2 meters and a depth of 2 meters. Together with the central activity area and the aisle, the total area is about 1000 square meters. All the counters in the room are uniformly decorated, the wooden carvings are in the shape of the facade, the color is classical, and the names of the shops are written in the door, which is uniform. The market is designed with a wide slewing center and a free WC. The most market stores are seafood stores. Finland is a paradise for fish lovers. Salmon, Baltic herring, squid and freshwater squid are delicious. The method of cooking is smoked, open fire, steamed and steamed. In addition, raw and salted are also very popular. Finland's extensive forests provide the best conditions for tasting such as reindeer meat and snow chicken. The best way to cook reindeer is to simmer and simmer until the corresponding heat is cooked. The meat is thick and sour, accompanied by sweet and sour Red plum sauce and mashed potatoes are mouth watering. There are also some Nordic-style handicraft shops, especially like the life style of Nordic style goods, it is no wonder that so many people like to visit IKEA
