Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What travellers are saying
- lithlithMichigan950 contributionsWhile in Oulu, take a walk through the old market hall. There are a few souvenir shops and food stalls inside. You will also often find a market happening outside as well. This is a 2 minute walk from the Radisson Hotel and is very close to other shopping and restaurants.Written 23 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Chris MWetherby, UK1,701 contributionsThis is a pleasant beach a short distance from the centre of Oulu. We actually travelled there on the City road Train owned by and operating to the Vauhtipuisto Children's Amusement Park, which is very near the beach. The beach has a number of entertainment facilities and refreshment kiosks. To reach the area involves travelling through a pleasant green wooded area, which acts as a pleasant backdrop to the beach.Written 13 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Krisztián G4 contributionsIt's a stunningly beautiful park in the inner city with creeks and bridges over them. There's a playground, an ice-cream truck and even a greenhouse.Written 17 July 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Chris MWetherby, UK1,701 contributionsWhilst this is just a statue in a prominent position, near the Market Hall, it is a statue that has character and "attitude". It portrays a police officer and apparently is in recognition of police personnel who used to patrol the Market Place.Written 13 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- JokkisOulu, Finland34 contributionsNice but quite small collection of cars and motorcycles. On the other hand also price was under ten euros.

There is nice cafe in same building which offers very good lunch also.Written 30 December 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Dy noOulu, Finland1 contributionThis is definitely not ”a typical orthodox” cathedral like someone said before. It is and has always been a lutheral cathedral. The lutheran cathedrals are far less decorative than the orthodox cathedrals anyway. :)Written 21 December 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- MustaKissaMuonio, Finland103 contributionsWe saw only inside part due to winter. It's a very nice botanical garden - plenty of unusual and beautiful plants, many of them with flowers. Was a delight to watch it in winter because I was missing green plants and flowers.
Everything is nicely arranged and well cared for.Written 23 September 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We did not have high expectations when we entered the museum and were pleasantly surprised by the exhibition. The museum is quite big and the different sections of the museum give you a very good picture of life in Oulu region. Highly recommended.
