Hämeenkatu is the main street of Tampere, Finland. The beautiful boulevard is roughly a kilometre long, and 28.5 metres wide (driveway and sidewalk) at its widest point.
Hämeenkatu is a boulevard, which begins from the east at the Tampere railway station, continues westward to the Hämeenpuisto park, and is covered with cobble stones for its entire length. The street also contains the Hämeensilta bridge crossing the Tammerkoski rapids with gorgeous views on both sides. Eastwards from the railway station, Hämeenkatu is followed by the 700-metre-long Itsenäisyydenkatu, which then diverges into Sammonkatu and Teiskontie. In the west, Hämeenkatu continues first as Pirkankatu and then as Pispalan valtatie.
