Saarela

Saarela is probably the only area in Oulu named after an athlete. Yrjö Saarela was an Olympic gold medalist in wrestling, which was such a big deal they decided to name a whole neighbourhood after him! Saarela rests on the banks of Oulujoki with several houses scattered around the area. The parks and gardens here are great places to spend a long summer day!
