Native theater

According to Vainikka, the sand castle, Pallonlahti and Myllysaari are currently more diversifying than condensing the center.

On the other hand, the Lappeenranta harbor area is a natural amphitheater in his shape, where the tip of Halkosaari should be combined to the sand park. In the summer, it would be possible on a tongue board, and in winter the ice road would serve.

-Human flow must be made and the port area services must be high-quality, such as a sauna world or a sauna restaurant, international markets or concerts, Vainikka Visii.

– In the summer, the area could be expanded in different directions with terraces, Vainikka brainstorms.

In Vainikka’s view, Ainokatu needs to build boulevard -like and safe.
