On the territory of the park, there is the so-called clubhouse “Honka”. It got its name from the name of the Finnish company “Honka”, which is the world leader in the construction of environmentally friendly wood buildings.

In the inner harbor of the residence, there is a floating house with round-shaped illuminating windows. It was used for receptions, however, now it is called the Palace on the Water. The palace was called so because of expensive materials used inside decor – a tree of valuable species, gold leaf, marble and crystal. And the ceiling of the main hall is decorated with three luxurious chandeliers.

To bypass the entire territory in a day is almost impossible. You can book a tour on electric cars and drive around the main attractions. Another option is to rent a bike. But you definitely have to get there and admire all luxury and beauty with your eyes.
