Sights and attractions in the Vaasa Region

Do you dare to embark on an adventure outside your comfort zone? New experiences have been proven to expand a person's perception of the world. We do not recommend venturing into unfamiliar terrain without a map, but guided activities and unique local experiences can also push boundaries.

The World Heritage Gateway and Replot Bridge

Located next to the longest bridge in Finland, the World Heritage Gateway Visitor Center is the starting point of your visit! At the gate you'll get information about our World Heritage site and acquire hints of sights and things to do in the Kvarken archipelago.
