Hansa (shopping centre)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hansa (or Hansakortteli) is a shopping centre in the city centre of Turku, in Finland. It is located in the city's VII District, next to the Market Square. The shopping centre hosts a total of 156 businesses, including nineteen cafés and restaurants. It also contains a theatre and a cinema. The Turku branch of the Stockmann department store is located in Hansa.
Hansa is usually considered the most important shopping centre, though it has lost some of its popularity to the larger out-of-town Mylly shopping centre. The annual sales of Hansa in 2005 totalled over 170 million euros, making it the largest Finnish shopping centre outside the Greater Helsinki area. By number of visitors (approximately 13.5 million) Hansa is the third largest shopping centre in Finland.
