#Nordic adventure#Oulu's iconic scene is a bronze statue of the fat police standing in the market square. It is said that when it was built, because the security of Oulu was very good, only a fat police officer was needed to maintain security here [laughing]
If you come to Oulu, you will see a lovely bronze statue of a fat policeman in the square, built in 1987, and the fat image makes it look lovely.
The scenery here is so beautiful! The spring water is clear like a mirror, and the mountains are full of colorful wild flowers. It is really like a beautiful landscape painting against the blue sky and white clouds.
The police statue is too fat, right? A little too cute? You can take a picture with him
