This hidden gem in Vörå, Ehrs Park at Mount Grannas, "the Little Greece" is a mystical place filled with Greek statues and buildings. You can go on a unique journey of discovery to the worlds of Aphrodite, Zeus and Artemis. The viewpoint on the top of the mount Grannas is amazing! 😍🌾 Nice to know before visiting: 🌿Behind the buildings is Ernst Ehrs who was interested in antique. Before he passed away, he wished his sons to destroy the statues on the park. However, his sons decided to save their father's dream on the Mount Grannas so the statues are still there. The statues are from the 80's. 🌿Ehrs Park is not an official Park or site, so the park is overgrown in some parts, wear comfortable shoes when visiting. The park and the statues have been damaged over the years, but on the other hand it creates an unique atmosphere there. 🌿Please remember to respect this unique place when visiting. Be careful there and do not leave any trash in the park. 📍 Härmäntie 41, Vöyri / Härmävägen 41, Vörå . . . #visitvöyri #visitvörå #vöyri #vörå #ehrsparken #ehrsparken #visitvaasa
