Amusement park on my doorstep! The entrance is free so you can just go for a wonder. I recommend the wooden roller-coaster, it's a real novelty. Kids LOVE this place! (Closed during winter)

Essentials

Rather large grocery store with good selection of everything. Do note that if you wish to buy alcohol stronger than a beer you should visit Alko, a dedicated alcohol shop, in the same building.
