Tampere is located between two lakes: Pyhajarvi (south) and Nasijarvi (north). Due to the fact that the lakes have different levels, the Tammerkoski River runs between them, which divides the historical part of the city into two parts. The length of the river is 945 meters.

You can get to Tampere by rail or by car from Helsinki, where, in turn, there are direct flights from Moscow and St. Petersburg.
