Puijo, Nature observation tower in Kuopio, Finland.

The Puijo Tower rises 75 meters into the sky, offering 360-degree views across the Finnish landscape from its observation deck at 306 meters above sea level.

The summit has served as a strategic vantage point since ancient times, with the first wooden observation tower constructed at this location in the late 19th century.

The revolving restaurant at the top of Puijo Tower introduces visitors to Finnish cuisine while they watch the changing landscape through panoramic windows.

The tower remains open throughout the year and includes facilities such as a souvenir shop, viewing terrace, and seasonal outdoor activities like snow tubing in winter.

Visitors can experience virtual reality ski jumping at the tower, simulating the thrill of Nordic winter sports from this national training center location.
