Weird and wonderful
Well worth the detour , it's not often you get to engage with sculpture on this scale - or is it really architecture , or is it theatre ; who knows but it's worth experiencing.

Art in the middle of nowhere
If you happen to drive through Pinsiö, which, let's face it very few people happen to do, don't hesitate to stop here. It's a quite cool place in an old sand quarry, giving you serious ideas of a post apocalyptic Hobbiton. The world famous artist, Nancy Holt for some reason planned and executed this landmark along the backroads of the Finnish countryside and it's a shame it is so rarely visited. The park (for want of a better word) is in fact a great place to bring kids to. It's easily accessible and fun to explore but if it's hot, bring a water bottle.
