Romuranta may not be the most inviting name, but it hides a surprisingly exciting destination in its coves. At low tide, you can find interesting tidal pools and rusty debris from the Abercrombie and Greely forts dating back to World War II. Of the many pieces of beach glass that have been worn into round shapes, the dark blue ones are the most prized. The pretty white pebbles are the remains of pots and sinks, and the red ones are pieces of brick smoothed by the waves of the ocean.

RAUTAA & ROJUA – the antidote to beauty clichés

The Science Term Bank defines beauty as an aesthetic quality that is generally considered a type of aesthetic value. According to the philosopher Plato, beauty is a true reality that can be understood by reason, but whose imperfect reflections can also be perceived by the senses. Aristotle, on the other hand, defended the principle of purposefulness. The opposite of these views is that beauty is a purely subjective value, i.e., beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Also ugliness is in the eye of the beholder. Decadent romanticism, the beauty of ugliness, is an ideological movement that emerged in the late 18th century. According to this movement, an object can be perceived as beautiful simply because looking at it gives pleasure.
