Nyt kun on kaunis ilma, kannattaa lähteä reippailemaan Tornion kau­pun­gin­lah­del­le ja katsomaan eläinpotretteja! Kaupunginlahden rantaviivaa kiertää valokuvapolku, joka esittelee luontokuvaajien osaamista – herkistä lähikuvista voimakkaisiin kohtaamisiin.

Ulkotilaan sijoitettu valokuvapolku on maksuton ja helposti saavutettavissa. Ulkonäyttely tarjoaa matalan kynnyksen kulttuurielämyksen, joka kutsuu ulkoilemaan, havainnoimaan ympäristöä uudesta näkökulmasta ja pysähtymään luonnon äärelle. Näyttelyn toteuttaa Tornion Kameraseura ry ja se on osa Oulu 2026 – Euroopan kulttuuripääkaupunki -ohjelmaa. Toteutusta tukee Vappu- ja Oskari Yliperttulan säätiö.

Let’s take one more moment to look back at this unforgettable day on the border! 🥖✨🇫🇮🇸🇪

While people gathered for the cross-border letkajenkka world record attempt in Tornio-Haparanda, students from Lappia were also creating something huge of their own, a filled baguette over 100 meters long! 🤩

More than 80 baguettes were baked for the challenge, using over 100 kg of dough. A fun and memorable part of a day that brought people together in the best possible way. 🤍

👉 Did you join the letkajenkka dance or stop by to taste the giant baguette? 😄
