    Japanese Secular Pilgrimage Tourists in Finland Ikeuchi-Peltonen, Shizuka 2015 Kerava Laurea University of Applied Sciences Kerava Japanese Secular Pilgrimage Tourists in Finland Shizuka Ikeuchi-Peltonen Degree Programme in Tourism Bachelor’s Thesis 05, 2015 Laurea University of Applied Sciences Abstract Kerava Bachelor Degree Programme in Tourism Shizuka Ikeuchi-Peltonen Japanese Secular Pilgrimage Tourists in Finland Year 2015 Pages 51 The tour patterns of Japanese tourists coming to Finland are changing from traditionally col- lective ones towards more individualistic direction, because the tourists can obtain infor- mation themselves and decide the destinations themselves relating to their own interests thanks to digitalization and network. Some of them are enthusiastic to visit several places related to the specific cultural contents they are interested in, such as film, music, design, architecture and nature, in the form of “secular pilgrimage tour”. In the primary research, the task is to find an answer to the following question: “what kind of secular pilgrimages are made by Japanese tourists in Finland?” The research starts with quan- titative analyzing of the travel stories available on websites to find out some tour patterns. It shows the major places/attractions relating to the interests of the tourists. At the same time, it also shows minor destinations of niche demand. In the second part of the research, one-on-one interviews are conducted with four of the tourists who have made a secular pilgrimage tour and one tour coordinator in Finland. The data from these interviews add richer description to the result of the primary research, draw- ing clearer picture of the tourists’ true feelings and more characteristics to the primary anal- ysis of the destinations.

She spent her childhood in the eastern shore of the the inner city, Katajanokka. When Tove was young, the family moved to the artist’s home, Lallukka, to Etu-Töölö. Later, she got her own studio in Kaartinkaupunki. Helsinki appears in Tove’s works in many forms. The city is most often anonymous, but easily recognisable, particularly in the novels. Tove spent her summers in the archipelago and, therefore, Helsinki often occurs in her books, paintings and drawings in a wintery form - snowy, large, and dark. The path We prepared a walkable route to paraphrase Tove’s journey from home Luotsikatu to school Korkeavuorenkatu. On the way there are playgrounds and views that already were there back in the 190s, when Tove herself walked these paths. We also see Tove’s father’s, the sculptor Viktor Jansson´s, fountains in Esplanade Park. They have been there since the 1940s. Halkolaituri, Svenska Teatern, The Observatory on Tähtitorninmäki and Tove’s art school Ateneum have also been marked on the map. We looked through Tove’s books and short stories to find snippets that would be suited for different places: quotes that tell of work, love and other emotions, as well as feelings from home and parks, skating rink and spring nights in the city.
