  7. 5.0 Raumakari (1 review)
    - Intresting history of Raumakari, goos spot for a picnic
    Sunday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Spent 1-2 hours Islands
    1934 builded Ukko-Pekka bridge, in these days is in light vehicle and walking use only, and in the middle of the bridge is a open spot in a fence, from where you can step to the other side of it and get to the tiniest island called Raumakari. Raumakari, and specially the southern side of it, is very popular lure fishing place, on the bridge is usually many fishermen in a row. From the middle of the island you can find a very special monument. A big stone, witch is bolted to the rock underneath with a heavy chain. On the stone is a sign that says “Friendship stone”. The story behind the Friendship-stone is, that in the old days, people were tired of fighting between young men from the island of Luonnonmaa and from the continental Naantali. One very strong man brought a big stone for them in between, to Raumakari, and said that they could try their strengths by lifting the stone and not each other. Friendship stone has remain to this day as a symbol of peace, between islands and continental. There are also intresting rockhacks in the area, some of which have been there since the 18th century. Skillfully engraved year numbers and initials, some of them stand out very clearly. Some signs on the rocks also played an important role as landmarks or when monitoring the water levels of the area. The flow under the bridge is strong, and even in the coldest winters it does not freeze. Therefore, the place is the best destination for birdwatchers in winter, as in summer when you can spot summer doves nesting on the cliffs of the Kuparivuori. There are also couple of other things referring to shipping traditions: various mooring rings and rock hooks for boat mooring and rock formations that have been rounded off beautifully by seawater flow.
