It is the tallest building in Finland standing 168 meters tall. N\u00e4sinneula is an observation tower with revolving restaurant at its top that allows visitor to eat a meal while enjoying the views of both city and surrounding areas. N\u00e4sinneula is located next to the lake N\u00e4si and is surrounded by amusement park S\u00e4rk\u00e4nniemi. The name N\u00e4sinneula translates roughly as the needle of the lake N\u00e4si.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find some swag with this Wapuu at the event!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are introducing the main mascot of WordCamp Finland.
