That is maybe my favourite meals corridor. Courting from 1896, the fundamental constructing is notable, the shows are beautiful and suitably Nordic, and for lunch you may strive all kinds of cuisines, together with wonderful Mexican meals, a rarity in Europe. (They informed me they purchase their tortillas from different Mexicans in Czechia.) From separate stalls I purchased some salami and likewise black bread, and each have been pretty much as good as any I’ve tried, ever.
Many meals halls are overrated. They create an phantasm of plenitude, whereas not providing many gadgets you really want to purchase and devour. The Turku meals corridor, nevertheless, is an actual winner.
General, Turku felt extra Swedish and likewise extra fashionable than Helsinki. The Swedish identify for the town — Ã…bo — you see throughout, and one of many universities nonetheless teaches in Swedish. It’s far more of a school city. That stated, at inhabitants 202,000 it’s slower and there may be a lot much less to do there. You possibly can see a few of Alvar Aalto’s early buildings.
I used to be informed that 77 Mexicans stay in Turku.
