Introducing Kotka

Kotka has been and remains Finland's most important industrial port, so don't turn up expecting a cluster of wooden houses surrounding bobbing yachts. It has massive pulp factories and large oil tanks but also some redeeming attractions, including a smart new aquarium, an excellent trattoria, a good amount of parkland, and the nearby Imperial Fishing Lodge, where the tsar used to pull on his waders and cast for salmon.
