After 40 min drive to Porvoo we park at the entrance into Porvoo Old town. This is where the King's road went through. Here starts your 2h walk in Finland 2nd oldest city. Let's travel back in time and enjoy Swedish heritage Medieval city.

Ex-catholic, now lutheran church from Medieval times. Probably, stone church was already built in 1450s and the surface under the church was a graveyard for Porvoo citizens for centuries. Look at the old paintings on the wall, find the dates on the lanterns, know the purpose of a ship under the ceiling, get puzzled by Alexander I statue in the church and admire old Christian church Finland is particularly proud of. Visit depends on opening hours.

Let's walk to Chapter House, the border of old town, see the first house where J.L. Runeberg lived and get to the devil's stairs! There is nothing about the devil, really, however, these stairs were not made by man, but ny nature itself. Feel the stillness of Porvoo and see how Finns live and understand Finnish character a bit better.

Edelfelt had an eye for Porvoo and enjoy painting one street after another. Paintings without a story, pure picture of life from 19 century.

Let's enter a house from 1763 and see a temporary exhibition by Finnish artists. Have a look at the inner yard and see how was organized the business in Porvoo in 18th century. Visit is subject to opening hours.

Here we walk Jokikatu and Valikatu, enter souvenir shops, admire old houses and have time for quick shopping. We walk the new bridge and admire Old city view from the other side, have a look at Simolin house and local coffee roastery.
