open end

The Finnish pavilion on the Expo 2000 site was coined an "exciting and mystical building". Two elongated buildings made of dark wood as well as two glass walls enclose a birch-bosk. Over seventy birches from Finland stand on genuine forest soil. Three wooden staircases in mid-air lead upstairs by the cool bosk and connect the two parts of the building. Inside the wood you will be served mulled wine and an overview of the history of the pavilion will also be presented. Afterwards, you may walk over the strained wooden stairs to the meeting area where you will enjoy dinner with a view over the birch-bosk. A musical A-Capella "Die sechs Richtigen" will top this exclusive meeting off.
