As we walk these historic streets in Spring 2026, look closely at the windows—you’ll see the famous Porcelain Dogs. Traditionally, these were turned to face the street when the master of the house was away at sea, and turned inward when he returned. You’ll also spot "gossip mirrors" (juorupeili) designed to help residents see who was walking by without being seen! This immersive 4K 60fps tour captures the peaceful atmosphere of one of Finland’s most cohesive historical areas.
