- This picture just gives you an glimpse what the surrounding area looks like. It's hard to get a clear picture showing this, because the vegetation has covered Viapori quite nicely. And the other thing that's making this a bit difficult task  is that of course while building this fortification, they tried to camouflage it so that enemy troops wouldn't see it kilometers away.

- The thing that got my attention at this ammunition storage space is the fact that the wood that's there, is almost  100 years old. And it's not even badly rotten.
