Endless summer nights
Finland has delightful long nights in summer, when the sun disappears from the sky only for a short time. Finland's imposing lakescape with well over 180,000 lakes, including the Archipelago Sea, and the wide, fragrant coniferous forests, invite you to canoe and hike. Its natural beauty offers everything an outdoor enthusiast and nature lover could wish for.
Vibrant capital and Finnish delicacies
The pulsating capital Helsinki stands in contrast to the untouched nature. Houses from classicism and art nouveau alternate with modern buildings such as the Finlandia Concert Hall and invite you to explore.
The market place Kauppatori seduces with countless stalls of fruits, vegetables and fish. Here you can enjoy wonderful Finnish specialities such as Karelian pies - a rye puff pastry with various fillings - or Kalakukko - fish baked in bread.
