One of the main attractions appears to be the Puijio Tower
a) how long would it take to walk there (alternatively, is there a regular bus service)
b) if we went on the Friday evening, is it worth eating there (and would we need to book)
c) is it worth the money/ effort - 12euros is a lot just to look at the view

Hi TiA!
Try these pages, might be helpful; and, there is an e-mail address to ask more specific questions, like bus connections.

You are short of time; if I were you I would just hang around on the market square, maybe, maybe leaving the Puijo idea.
