My travel tips 🙂 The best place to begin your trip to Kuusisto Bishop’s Castle Ruins would be Kauppatori (the Market Place in Turku). You can visit Folï’s website http://www.foli.fi/en which will give you the travel time for the bus. Personally, I took it up to Oskarinaukio and then the bus K2 to Kuusisto. Guess what, […]
