This is a community/regional shopping mall located nicely near the heart of the city.

For me, this makes shopping take some unnecessary effort. There is no food court, but there are several restaurants that offer some variety. Again, when shopping for clothes the absence of brand stores is a bit of a problem for me. Other specialist stores, such as book stores, are generally pretty weak with few exceptions. There is a GameStop. There is no real electronics store, but you will at least find all the operator stores (with long lines) here. The parking garage is fairly spacious (with a car wash service that I have never tried) and the mall is easy to access by foot from pretty much any direction. The opening hours are also pretty good. Convenient when the weather is bad. There's an app for Koskikeskus. It looks like it's in Finnish only but there are symbols that should help. May be worth checking out if you can't find your way around the place. Overall, this mall is still okay.

Koskikeskus is the biggest shopping center in Tampere with 90 different stores of all kinds. It has…read moregood opening hours every day of the week and it is easy to find since its near both bus and train station even if it doesnt lie in the main streets of the city.

Koskikeskus transelated is "center by the riverfalls" I recommend everyone to visit Koskikeskus if you are in Tampere!

Keeps the best brands as well -- Hence is also quite expensive. It's not a tourist attraction, just a regular department store - and you get liquor here.
