Auran Itäinen keskusta

Aura

The eastern center of Aura is a perfect combination of nature and communality. With its convenient transport connections and services, everyday life is smooth and steady in the eastern center of Aura. There are available lots in the area with beautiful scenery with plenty of hobbies. Moreover, the area is home to many companies, many of which can benefit from the entrepreneur-friendly spirit of the municipality.

A combination of service efficiency and neighboring nature

Aura’s eastern center is located right by Asemaseutu, and is the second most densely populated area in the municipality. Its moraine-based and uneven soil creates a unique counterbalance to its rather flat opposite side, the western part of Aura. The eastern center is surrounded by the roads Turuntie and Aurantie, and together with Yhdystie they form the core center of Aura, making it convenient to travel to neighboring cities.

Although a significant number of municipal services are situated in the western center, the east-side has plenty to offer: a grocery store, a bank, a restaurant and even a bakery. There are also great opportunities for exercise. From ice skating to frisbee golfing, Eastern Aura with its recreation area Ulkoilulahto is a any outdoor athlete’s place to be. Auran kuntoilijat make sure that everyone who enjoys outdoor activities such as hiking and skiing can get involved regardless of the season.

One can get sporty even in the heart of Aura; Sisupuisto offers great opportunities for both athletic and cultural recreation. Moreover, the riverside is equipped with a brand new deck for boating and stand up paddling.

The eastern center is an attractive area not only for sports enthusiasts but also for those interested in entrepreneurship. Lepomäki and Horsmamäki are home of several companies. In addition, the multi-purpose building Auraamo in the city center offers a great deal of facilities for associations and various corporate events. Together, Auraamo and the entrepreneur-mindset of the municipality of Aura provide an excellent base for growth and networking.
