About the northern lights; Tampere is quite south so the northern light are usually quite pale but if you are lucky you can see them sometimes. Dark winter nights are the best times. You can find more info from: http://www.tampereenursa.fi/?page=%7...8487D447213%7D (click --Briefly in English... )
In Tampere is one mosque (I posted before it´s contanct info to you):
Yliopistonkatu 60 A,
33100 TAMPERE
+358 50 323 5594
info(at)islamtampere.com
They are also in Facebook (but unfortunately only by Finnish):
From them you can ask more info about times and places where to pray.
From the official site of city of Tampere you can find info where to go and visit but I am sure you will get information also from the university about the city.
As I know, every people whose visit in there, like to visit in the observation tower called Näsinneula.
When you travel, remember that winters are cold with a lot of snow (well, mostly). Be sure you have warm clothes with you. Warm wool socks are the must. Hyvää matkaa ja tervetuloa. (Have a nice travel and welcome.)

Thank you.
The wool socks is a good tip! Never experienced winter before.
At the first you have to travel from the Helsinki airport to Helsinki (Kamppi) central bus station (It is a center of the city.) by bus and from that central bus station you can travel to Tampere.
Finnair City Bus goes every 10 minutes to the Central Railways Station which is not far from the Kamppi Bus Station.
I think that brother
@Futuwwa
might know better about those bus routes than I. It´s decades ago when I at the last times have traveled by bus in Helsinki.

If you stay in Inari where that video was from, there isn´t daylight at all at this time of the year. The polar night is about 50 days. However, at the mid summer there isn´t nights at all and this makes fasting quite impossible if using the local times. The polar day is normally for 74 days.
Naturally Muslims whose live so up north can´t use the local times for the fasting.
Went to the very north of Norway two winters ago. On this particular day it was 40 below. Local tour guide (a lass) said: 'We love it when the spring comes. That's when we unwrap the kids to see who they belong to!'

Gonna bother you with another question
Is it easy to find halal frozen foods in supermarkets? Is there a logo saying the product is halal or kosher like they have in other countries?

From normal supermarkets you don´t find much halal products but you can check nearest markets and ask if they have halal meat, frozen or fresh. And yes, halal products have logo to tell they are halal. In Tampere is 2 special markets where you can find halal foods (Alanya Market, Puutarhakatu 14 and East Asian Mart, Tullikatu 6). You can also contact to mosque and ask if someone can help you to find suitable foods. Muslims in Tampere are very helpful.
What came to my mind; as you might need photos about yourself to the student cards, it may be easier to you if you have them already before you leave your home. I mean similar photos which are needed for the passports.

Great tip! Might also be handy when creating a bank acc / sim card

Auroras Now! is a space weather service maintaining by Finnish Meteorological Institute (FMI) to help watching auroras in Finland.
The service includes auroral monitoring with the all-sky cameras and magnetic field alarm systems for Northern and Southern Finland separately.
Is anyone living in tampere currently? I googled mosques in tampere and one mosque showed up which is very near to where I'll be staying. I am so happy. But I can't find any details about the mosque except for it's location. Can anyone verify if it exists?
Jazakallah Khair
Hervanta Mosque Address: Opettajanraitti 4, 33720 Tampere, Finland

Majority of halal products you find from shops are imported so they might be what ever logos. In Finland seems to be at the least one Finnish food producer which has halal products (but I don´t know how widely they sell them).
For example halal salami:
(producer: Kylmänen Food Oy)
