Kauppi Observatory

In the winter, when the lake Näsijärvi has thick-enough ice, a company called Hiking Travel HIT maintains a free tour skating track on the lake. The main track goes along the shore from Kaupinoja to Onkiniemi. The Siilinkari Cafe (in the middle of the lake) serves skaters and walkers alike. There is also an Eastbound track from Kaupinoja and a Northbound route from Siilinkari. Hiking Travel HIT rents all the needed equipment from their equipment rental located in Kaupinoja. Follow their website/Facebook for the up-to-date info on the track and its maintenance.

A sports centre that offers physical entertainment for both adults and children. Includes e.g. trampoline park, gym, bicycle rental and other group exercise.

A spa hotel, about 1 km from the city centre, built into an old cotton mill situated next to a marina. The large spa department offers swimming pools, jacuzzis, a children's pool, saunas, a steam room, and spa treatments also for day visitors.

Solid concrete modernist church designed by famous architect Reima Pietilä in 1966. It is likely the most important piece of architecture in Tampere. Locals call it "The Silo of Souls" (Sielujen siilo) and from the outside it's not hard to see why, but the stark interior is quite awe-inspiring: very high and big room without pillars, minimalist interior made of bright wood. Some Sundays, community members guide onto the roof, which offers a good view over Tampere, and let one have a nice view from the top into the church room.

A samba show to celebrate November, held by the local samba school União da Roseira. The event also includes the selection of Roseira's new passista dancer for next year's carnivals, voted by the audience. Held on a Saturday in late November.

Imposing church in the National Romantic style, designed by architect Lars Sonck and completed in 1907. The interior has a series of famously macabre frescos by Hugo Simberg, including The Wounded Angel (once voted Finland's "national painting") and the Garden of Death.
