We looked at the <a href=\"https:\/\/labyrinthlocator.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/labyrinthlocator.com\/<\/a> , and for Finland we only found two locations: one in Kemi and one in Porvoo. Below are photos how the labyrinth locator presents these locations:<\/p>\n<p>None of these locations was ideally located close to us in order to film them, because our office is located in Turku. This means approx 720 kms to reach Kemi and approx. 215 kms to arrive in Porvoo. Nevertheless, we found another labyrinth close by, in the archipielago area, and we will write about this in another post. We were convinced there was not a physical labyrinth close by to our home-office.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-309 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-medium'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.umaze.org\/?attachment_id=317'><img width=\"300\" height=\"126\" src=\"https:\/\/www.umaze.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Laberinth_03-1-300x126.png\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.umaze.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Laberinth_03-1-300x126.png 300w, https:\/\/www.umaze.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Laberinth_03-1-1024x431.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.umaze.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Laberinth_03-1-768x323.png 768w, https:\/\/www.umaze.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Laberinth_03-1-1536x646.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.umaze.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Laberinth_03-1.png 1603w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-317'>\n\t\t\t\tSeasonal labyrinth in Porvoo, it is not corn field maze, however it is taken care by a farm. \n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.umaze.org\/?attachment_id=315'><img width=\"300\" height=\"149\" src=\"https:\/\/www.umaze.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Laberinth_01-1-300x149.png\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-315\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.umaze.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Laberinth_01-1-300x149.png 300w, https:\/\/www.umaze.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Laberinth_01-1-1024x510.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.umaze.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Laberinth_01-1-768x382.png 768w, https:\/\/www.umaze.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Laberinth_01-1-1536x765.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.umaze.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Laberinth_01-1.png 1627w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-315'>\n\t\t\t\tScreenshot from the farmers&#8217; facebook page at charge of the Porvoo&#8217;s maze. \n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.umaze.org\/?attachment_id=316'><img width=\"300\" height=\"125\" src=\"https:\/\/www.umaze.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Laberinth_02-1-300x125.png\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-316\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.umaze.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Laberinth_02-1-300x125.png 300w, https:\/\/www.umaze.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Laberinth_02-1-1024x428.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.umaze.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Laberinth_02-1-768x321.png 768w, https:\/\/www.umaze.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Laberinth_02-1-1536x641.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.umaze.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Laberinth_02-1.png 1624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-316'>\n\t\t\t\tLabyrinth in Kemi\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>Our home-office is adjacent to Urheilupuisto Park.
