Kuopio is a city and a municipality located in the region of Northern Savonia, Finland. A population of 110,999 makes it the eighth biggest city in the country. The city has a total area of 2,317.24 square kilometres (894.69 sq mi), of which 719.85 km2 (277.94 sq mi) is water and half forest. The population density is only 69/km2 (180/sq mi), but the city's urban areas are populated very densely (urban area: 1 617.6 /km²), nationally second only to capital Helsinki (urban area: 1,690.0/km²). The population of the entire Kuopio region is 119,472.
The town of Nilsiä joined Kuopio at the beginning of the year 2013 and Kuopio’s population surpassed the 100,000 mark.
There are several explanations behind the name Kuopio. The first is that in the 16th century, a certain influential person named Kauhanen in Tavinsalmi changed his name to Skopa and the people's pronunciation was Coopia and finally Cuopio. The second explanation is that it comes from the verb kuopia, meaning "paw", as when a horse paws the ground with its hoof. A third theory is that it came from a certain Karelian man's name Prokopij, from Ruokolahti in the Middle Ages. This is the most probable explanation, supported by the Research Institute for the Languages of Finland.

Nice travel video of Kuopio, Finland. Kuopio is a city and a municipality located in the region of Northern Savonia of Finland. A population of Kuopio - about 111 000, it's the eighth biggest city in Finland. Finland is a Nordic country in Northern Europe bordered by Sweden to the west, Norway to the north, and Russia to the east. Description of the video of Hannu Hoffrén (the author of the video): The last Saturday of May 2009 was a beautiful day in Kuopio, Finland. My cousin gave me a hint that there's a cruising event starting in afternoon. We just got the new Sony PMW-EX1 at my workplace so this was a perfect change to get myself familiarized with the camera. However, I ended up using full auto mode most of the time. :) A very nice camera, especially since the files can be transfe...

Watch and learn about Kuopio, Finland as I take a bus tour around the city and learn a little about history and sites of Finland's 8th largest city.
You want a house and a child but you don't want a man.
You'll live off the state as long as you can.
Claim you're equal with your feminist wit.
If you are you'd better act like it.
With a glass plate in your stomach,
everyone will look at you
The only woman in the world,
to have a womb with a view
Men are the evil, women are good.
You joined the CND just like you should.
Greenham Common the new Babylon.
Campaign all you want they'll still drop the bomb.
Burn your bra then whine for support.
Independence is a thing that can't be taught.
Live was busy for the little girl.
