This island is actually named "Pikisaari". Name means "pitch island" and this island used to be a major export place of tar. It had also some industries but it's nowadays more like residential area.

There is a cosy little restaurant Sokeri-Jussi i.e. "Sugar John" and lots of old wooden buildings for us to see. Carpentury from the 19th century. Take a closer look!
