^ yes, the line 4/6 has clearly been created to confuse the hell out of tourists!

I haven't been yet, and I have no intentions to.
I find Iso Omena horrible enough.
Same labyrinth tactics (pass as many shops as possible to get from A to B).
BTW, it's called a mall - a marketplace would be e.g. kauppatori (also quite a bad trip esp. in summer).

I love your usage of "other" here, such a literal translation of "toinen".
(In English and other languages you would say "the one track and the other track" or something along those lines.)
Used to confuse me a lot when Finns said "The other" when there hadn't been a first before that. To the point that a friend told me the story of Kekkonen and "toinen tohelo", which nicely illustrates the usage of the word.
