Pispala

Yet more to the west, the ridge curves to the district of Pispala, whose wooden houses sit very close to each other on the face of the ridge. This principle of building was enabled by the fact that earlier Pispala did not officially belong to Tampere, and thus people did not need to obey city regulations when they were building their houses. The whole of Pispala is covered by private homes. Narrow streets cross the slopes, and the famous Pispala stairs climb the southern side to the very top. Due to the height and steepness of the ridge, a walk around Pispala is a nice but physically demanding experience. Owing to its good reputation and unique environment, Pispala has become a very popular district. Most people who are born there also stay there, and a majority of the best sites are occupied by the homes of relatively wealthy people. To a certain extent, this applies to Pyynikki as well; the eastern side of the ridge is lined by a row of luxury residences.
