As you approach Turku, you can't miss the city's unofficial mascot, Posankka, a wonderfully bizarre, bright pink creature that's part pig and part rubber duck. Created by artist Alvar Gullichsen, this quirky roadside statue has become a beloved local landmark and a fantastic photo opportunity. It's a playful piece of public art that perfectly captures the city's unique charm, and you'll often find it decorated with a festive hat for holidays, adding to its whimsical character.
