Very funny but nice looking statue! I didn't even know these were to be found in Joensuu. Great opportunity to take funny pictures with this statue.

From the Rylays Hill lookout point, great views open out onto Koli National Park's hills and Lake Pielinen which gleams out from behind them. There are handsome scree stones that look like a stream of rock on the hill slope a short distance to the south of the lookout point. There is a Lapp ‘kota' hut and a campfire site close to the lookout point. 2,4 Km From the Parking Place

Finland’s easternmost village, Möhkö, is situated next to Koitajoki River in Ilomantsi. The entire village was originally founded around one of Finland’s largest lake iron ore ironworks. Möhkö’s unique cultural environment includes buildings, the remnants of industrial history, memories of war history, non-indigenous plants brought in by the war and beautiful nature. The ironworks also has a unique restored canal system restored. There is the cafe, Möhkön Manta, situated in the old residential barge. Lemmenpolku (Path of Love) meanders on the vast compounds of the ironworks. The path leads travellers to Lotinankoski Rapids and Möhkö’s Aboretum.
