The park was the result of collaboration between Lars Liljefors, Park Designer at the Public Works Department, and sculptor Kain Tapper (1930\u20132004). The park itself is a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hamhelsinki.fi\/en\/sculptures\/tauno-palo-memorial\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">memorial<\/a>\u00a0that comprises flower arrangements, a basin, a granite slab and a bronze portrait in relief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With his treatment of stone and wood, Kain Tapper established the concept of Finnish sculpture. Tapper described the memorial as follows: \u201cThe granite is reminiscent of Palo&#8217;s stocky figure, while the roses and the water pouring down from the rock suggest the artist\u2019s sensibility\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group fig col2\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"651\" src=\"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/taunopalo1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1820\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/taunopalo1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/taunopalo1-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/taunopalo1-768x500.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Tauno Palo Park in Kallio <em>Tomas Palmgren<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/taunopalo2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1822\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/taunopalo2.jpg 500w, https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/taunopalo2-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"> Bronze portrait relief of Tauno Palo by artist Kain Tapper, Tauno Palo Park <em>Tomas Palmgren<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The park is a small oasis for calm relaxation. The plants include a maple, the official tree of Helsinki, and a lilac, the official plant of Helsinki, as well as yews and wild cherries (Prunus avium). The original roses beside the small pond that represented Tauno Palo\u2019s sensitivity unfortunately did not survive, so they were replaced by perennials. A small stream runs down the rock into the pond. The wall that was built on top of the rocks has since become a popular apartment building for the city\u2019s wild rabbits!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tauno Palo Park alongside the main road Helsinginkatu is named in honour of the actor [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":11059,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[149],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3025","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-kallio"],"acf":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Tauno-Palon-puisto-HemmoRattya.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3025","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3025"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3025\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10629,"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3025\/revisions\/10629"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11059"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3025"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3025"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3025"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
