Tampere is a city in southern Finland. It is the most populous inland city in any of the Nordic countries. Tampere is located between two lakes, Näsijärvi and Pyhäjärvi. Since the two lakes differ in level by 18 metres, the rapids linking them, Tammerkoski, have been an important power source throughout history, most recently for generating electricity. Tampere is dubbed the "Manchester
of Finland" for its industrial past as the former center of Finnish
industry, and this has given rise to its Finnish nickname "Manse" and
terms such as "Manserock"
