On a horse wagon

We had a nice ride in a horse wagon today. There was an old horseman and his horse in Tallipiha Tampere as the city of Tampere had its 58th birthday today.

Tampere is the third largest city in Finland and the largest inland centre in the Nordic countries.

Currently there are over 215,000 inhabitants in Tampere, and close to half a million inhabitants in Tampere Region, which comprises Tampere and its neighbouring municipalities.

Tampere is one of the three most rapidly developing regions in Finland. It is a centre of leading-edge technology, research, education, culture, sports and business.

In 2010 and 2012, the City of Tampere came first in an image survey comparing the largest cities in Finland. It was also the most attractive city among Finns who plan on moving.
