Turku Shopping and Turku Shopping Districts

Shopping in Turku can be an extremely pleasant way to spend an afternoon.

The Stockmann department store on Yliopistonkatu is always a reliable spot to start your shopping trip in Turku and is you are lucky, you may well time your visit with one of its seasonal sales, when priced are slashed.

Also along the Eerikinkatu is Turku's ever popular Hansa Shopping Centre / Hansa Emporium (Hansakortteli), which is home to more than 150 different shops and eateries, along with department stores, a cinema complex and many speciality stores. Directly opposite and rather most historic is the Turku Market Hall, which features two corridors crammed with interesting shops selling both food and souvenirs.

Also of interest is the permanent flea market which resides within the Itäharju district, one the easterly side of central Turku. As with many large Finnish cities, Turku has followed the trend and set up a number of out-of-town shopping centres, with a good choice of stores around the northerly Satakunnantie.
