Puistola
Puistola (Swedish: Parkstad; literally means "park town") is a northeastern part of Helsinki, Finland. It is located along the main railway (Helsinki–Hämeenlinna railway) about two kilometers south of Tikkurila (Vantaa) and about six kilometers north of Malmi (Helsinki). Puistola was previously also considered a field area on the west side of the main railway, but after its construction it was named Tapulikaupunki and classified as belonging to the Suutarila district.
