Review:

Turku is a Finnish city located on the southern coast that historically has been well known for its shipbuilding industry. Visitors to Turku can learn about shipbuilding at Forum Marinarum, with exhibitions that even include the shipyard where some of the largest ships in the world were made. Turku Castle, a 13th century stone structure, is one of the oldest buildings in Finland that is still in use today. Visitors can tour the castle and learn about its history in the attached museum. There is also Turku Cathedral, which was built in 1300 and restored after the destruction of a fire in the 19th century.
