FINLAND ~Tampere~

Received two great European cards today, a city view from Finland and an UNESCO site from the Czech Republic. Its so nice to read a bit about the sender and I love it when they tell me something interesting about the view on the card!! :)
Both with such lovely stamps... I like more and more all the different beautiful stamps on my cards.

View of the central market of Tampere, on the left the Old Church and on the right the Tampere Theatre.
The capital of Finland's Western Lake District, Tampere is located in the midst of a lake labyrinth - 200 lakes situated within the city limits.
The city with a rich industrial heritage is a popular congress venue and an ideal holiday destination for the young and the young at heart, for families with children and for culture enthusiasts.
A big city by Finnish standards, with almost 210,000 inhabitants, Tampere still manages to feel like a small town. In the centre, everything is within walking distance.
