Finland is wrapped in mystique with natural attractions such as the
midnight sun and northern lights bathing the spectacular landscape. You can also
look forward to skiing or snowboarding come winter, or breathe in the fresh air
while hiking in summer! Be inspired by the neo-classical architecture dominating
Helsinki. The capital’s notable sights include the Senate Square,
Lutheran Cathedral and Temppeliaukio Church. Take a short ferry ride to the 18th
century fort, Suomenlinna. The city of
Espoo is also a great stop to your itinerary.
Enjoy the charm of the lakes and fishing villages, or bask in the raw beauty of
the wilderness in
Kotka and
Kouvola down South. Find year-round yuletide cheer in
Turku - known as Christmas City and a favourite skiing destination.
The alluring sights of the West Coast should not be missed.
Rauma thrills with its old wooden Nordic houses, whilst
Kokkola provides tourists a view of the maritime traditions and an
exciting time of hiking and sailing at the nearby Seven Bridges Archipelago.
For a fitting ending to your Finnish experience, visit Lapland! The capital
Rovaniemi bustles with Christmas spirit during winter-time when the
snow pours and festive lights go up in Santa Claus’s home!
