Aulanko

TIME : 2016/2/18 18:38:52

North of the town centre, this was created early in the 20th century by Hugo Standertskjöld, who spent a fortune creating a beautiful central-European-style park with ponds, swans, pavilions, a granite fortress and exotic trees. Although the best way to explore it is on foot, the sealed one-way road loop is accessible by private car. Bus 2, 13 or 17 will take you to Aulanko from central Hämeenlinna, or it's a pleasant 5km bike ride.
