Piritori

 

This place is a cult. Everyone uses name Piritori (Amfetaminsquare) for the place because basically there are always drugas hanging around. They are not dangerous towards others, but they sure have their own thing going on there. Even though Kallio has become a trendy place, Piritori has stayed as it has been for years. Originally the spot is called Vaasanaukio, but no one calls it that name. Or if does, others will be like "aand that's where?", -"Piritori", "ah, true!" 

​

There are still people who want to get rid of Piritori, but the truth is that those people who spend time there are also Helsinkians. Some of them (or most to be honest) have problems in their life. They just can't get hold in what we'd call normal life.
