This day was the full of Alvar Aalto. We went to the Säynätsalo Town Hall. Then Aalto's summer home. Our afternoon was spent at the Jyväskylä University campus that he master planned and designed a few of the buildings. The Alvar Aalto museum is also on the campus that exhibits all of his work. That night we drove to Helsinki.
