Fyi Kone is probably the biggest lift and escalator manufacturer in the world. The next time you step into a lift or on an escalator you will probably see the kone logo.
It's like saying: "Renault is probably the biggest car company in the World".
@@Tiax776 Except it is not. Its like saying Toyota Corp is the biggest (it is second only to the Volkswagen group). Kinda like Kone is only second to Otis. (misspelled Toyota lol)
Okay some list say its number 5 etc. So like Ford in the car example.
@@Tiax776 And adding to your kinda funny comparison. Stellantis is in the top 5 so you were not even wrong lmao
@@lauri9061 What is the point of bragging with something and then saying "probably". You can say anything if you just add "probably".
Otis and Schindler are bigger companies than KONE by sales volumes.
Rocks are worth a fortune, probably.
Eating two kilos of macaroni a day cures cancer, probably.
KONE makes escalators and elevators
The other tall building in the end was the Neste (later Fortum) tower which was the tallest in Finland when built. The nearby building with round shape was the old Nokia hq. Now Fortum hq is in the old Nokia building, and Neste (which got spun back out from Fortum) hq is in another nearby building, but neither is in the old Neste/Fortum tower.
Tallest office/ living building, maybe? Näsinneula was long time the tallest building in Finland, opened in 1971 - just last year, 2023 Prysmian group tower took the place as the tallest building in Finland.
About the old American cars, as a Finn (never owned one but have driven as a guest a couple) as I saw it from the outside it was the community around the hobby. They were cars to restore/modify, drive around in hobbyist gatherings, and to been seen in.
How about another Finnish region game? Because you've already played Lapland and Uusimaa, you should try something else (like Pirkanmaa or Southwest Finland).
As for the classic american cars, after WW2 Sweden and Switzerland were pretty much the only countries in Europe with fully operational industries as a result both countries experienced a huge economic booms. So while the rest of Europe bought small affordable European cars Swedes could afford to import large American cars.
knew the thumbnails location right when i saw it
Leppävaara, Espoo, Finland.
You pronounce finnish and swedish words quite well! Usually they are butchered quite badly by people not familiar with the languages.
I've been to Gothenburg as a child, but only accidentally :D
Back then (early 1980s) there was a cruise ship called Finnjet (built 1977) that sailed between Helsinki and Germany. My mother and I and some family friends took the cruise and had a good time in Hamburg. But when we were supposed to travel back home, we were told that Finnjet was broken and that they'd arrange an alternate route for us.
It became maybe a bit bigger detour than we expected. Another ship took us to Gothenburg and then a bus drove us from there to Stockholm. Then yet another ship took us back to Helsinki. Not what we had planned, but hey, we got to see the world :D
Towards the end of its life cycle, Finnjet did one unanticipated trip. When the hurricane Katrina caused havoc in New Orleans in 2005, Finnjet was sent there to act as temporary lodging for students whose campus had been destroyed. I felt good about that because I had good memories of the ship and it was nice to see that it got such a worthy task at the end of its life. After that it changed owners a few times and was finally scrapped in 2008.
Both round 3 and 5 were actually in Espoo, but very close to Helsinki (
Yeah and the municipality borders aren't visible in Google Maps.
Those destinations are in Espoo, not in Helsinki. Espoo is an independent city. It's the same, for example, it's like saying Texas to New York.
Great video!
These aren’t new buildings. The kone tower is from 2001 and the other one is from 1976.
Gamla Stan. The name literally says "Old Town" so probably not the place to have modern buildings.
For the 1st one the docks on the map (T shape) were a good clue to look for.
13:07 my home town🎉
Bananarama just covered the song.
Original from shocking blue is way better.
Tall? So you mean pretty much the shortest buildings cities around the World are building...
Finland has a law, which pretty much prohibits anything over 16- stories being built. Then they just slap some hideous cladding on those concrete elements (if even that) and call it a day.
