Turkuis the city on Finland’s southwest coast situated right at the 
Aura Rivermouth. This is an old town, as old as 13th century so this is 
the oldest city of Finland. In history in 1809 when the area was taken 
over by Russia, the capital of the then Finnish Grand Duchy of Finland 
used to be Helsinki. This city has been an important populous city and 
regional capital too. That is why the visitors look for historical 
traces in museums. This city has also been the capital of Estonia and 
also designated as the European Capital of Culture for 2011.
