@tml Ironically, I've visited both Oulu and Jyväskylä, but not Turku, Tampere or Lahti. Only the biggest cities have landmarks due to the lack of 'useful' ones. I've just realised that Kuopio is now bigger than Lahti, so I'll have to reconsider for the next update anyway.

@larstransportworld @tml Oulu is indeed sadly lacking in architectural landmarks. The most recognizable icons of the city are probably the Toripolliisi statue (pictured) and the “Paska kaupunni” graffito. (The latter, meaning ‘A crappy city’ (in the local dialect), has been reoccurring on the same apartment building wall in downtown Oulu for over 40 years.)
