Welcome to Kuopio! The capital of the lakeland, surrounded by the beautiful Lake Kallavesi and the majestic forests. “Here inspiration is a force of nature!”

Kuopio is an active city that combines intimate village and urban culture. In the centre of Kuopio you can find within the walking distance a lot of historical buildings, parks and statues together with modern architecture, restaurants, bars and shops.  There is something for everyone!

Remember that dressing up correctly is the key out here during the winter time when the temperature varies between +-0 and -30 degrees centigrate. At summer time the scale is between +5 and +35, so you can never know.
