This lovingly furnished place of worship is located somewhere in the middle of nowhere at the lower exit of the Aposelemi Gorge in a small house that at first glance almost looks like a toilet house. It is always amazing where such religious places can be found!

Entrance to the Aposelemi Gorge. You can leave your car under the highway bridge or park just before the gate. The path then begins clearly at the dried-up riverbed.
