Ilomantsi Market Square

About the sound

This recording was made during a regular summer afternoon in Ilomantsi, North Carelia. It is a soundscape recording from an empty market square.

You can hear the sounds of traffic, cars going around with music on and some people talking in the background.

Desolation of the countryside and small towns is growing steadily especially in Eastern Finland.
