+Viltsu Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Hi Nyman, welcome to Turku ;-) When are you coming? I'd say that allmost all central area caches are Ok, except maybe some mysteries. How many caches have you planned to search? Send me mail in my private mail: vilhyt@gmail.com so I can give you my phone number and be a help desk if you need help (in the case I'm available during your visit). I've been searching caches abroad and I know how frustraiting it can be not to be able to find caches due to language/cultural differencies. Here's a list of caches that I would recommend. They are not too difficult and have text also in english. Joulurauha GCZE7G Puolalanmäki GC1F5VN Ravintola Samppalinna GC16TEJ Betel-kirkko GC137EQ Apteekkimuseo GC11RXA Pääkirjasto/Turku city library (Turun ytimessä 3) GCNJ1E Turun ytimessä 4 GCT7HG 0 km: Turku GCZ1AH Lönnrothin polku GC143VT Jokiranta GCHV7Z This cache is more difficult and it has some climbing. It is not recommended if you have better clothes on/ if it's slippery or wet, but it's very rewarding: Six feet under ground GCVH35 For the bank question I would say that all banks are quite same, maybe best choice for a tourist would be Forex near the market place in Hansa-shopping centre. Also in swedish: www.forex.fi Please mail me for more info. These are all, but last one, easy and quick caches close to the centrum. Some of them I've searched long time ago so they may have changed little bit. comments from other Turku area cachers? Viltsu Which caches do you have to recommend to a visiting swede in Turku?

Peace N I assume You arrive by boat to the Port of Turku. In that case these two caches are quick and easy: Medieval Finland 7 - Turku Castle GCYWJG It is a multicache, but it´s a quick one, believe me I know, it´s ours. Then in a very neighbourhood there´s M/S IsabellaGC5DCC which can be easily found at the same time. reijamasa Quote Link to comment
