Not Enough Time in a Day at Tykkimäki 🎡

📍It's about a 1.5-hour drive from Helsinki to reach Tykkimäki, located near the eastern part of the city. Before the war, this place would have been bustling with Russian tourists during holidays, but now over 90% are locals from Finland. Tykkimäki actually consists of three parks: an indoor amusement park suitable for younger children, an outdoor water park (close to the camping area), and an outdoor amusement park. 📍The amusement park is relatively larger and more crowded, with a mix of thrilling and mild rides. You can check the official website to see how many attractions there are; for me, it was more than enough and even brought back memories of riding the sky bicycle as a child 🚲. Although it's busy on weekends, the wait is usually just one round, which is incredibly satisfying! There are dining options within the park, with prices that are acceptable, and they even have a jungle juice bar. 📍The water park features 4 high-speed slides and pools suitable for different age groups, with indoor changing rooms, showers, and saunas... It's a small outdoor water world but can easily fill an afternoon. So, if you plan to visit two parks in one day, it's a bit of a rush (operating hours are 11:00-19:00), but it's very exciting!
