It ’s kind of a surprise when you land in Helsinki to find that the airport is so modern and efficient. Not a polar bear in sight.It ’s truly amazing how uniquely exotic 异国的each season can be. Four times a year, nature changes its uniform completely –colour, light, temperature, sounds and smells. Everything changes in a way that happens nowhere else.The Finns are also considered to be cool – a bit quiet and reserved. However, they are actually warm, friendly, hospitable and especially honest people once you get to know them and we encourage you to do just that.Finland at a glanceSANTA CLAUSEveryone knows that Santa –the one and only –comes from Finland. Although the exact location of his privateretreat in Korvatunturi, Lapland, is unknown, his official hometown is Rovaniemi, where he greets visitors all yearround.NATIONAL PARKSThere are 37 national parks in Finland, covering a total surface area of 8,150 square kilometres.

The big ones, however,lie in the fells of Lapland and offer something very different from the usual European ski resorts. The surrounding landscapes are unspoilt, blanketed with pure snow from December to April. In the early winter the slopes are lit, lateron in the spring the sun shines until very late in the evening.LAKESFinland is often called the Land of a Thousand Lakes – a modest name, considering that there are, in fact, 188 000 lakes in the country. From the metropolitan area around Helsinki all the way up to the great Lake Inari in Lapland,Finland is filled with oases of the clean blue. Where Inari is known for its deep and crystal clear waters, LakeSaimaa’s ringed seal, one of the most endangered species in the world, is the country ’s largest lake ’s most memorable attraction. A lakeside cottage is an essential part of Finnish summer.SAUNASSauna –the word itself is Finnish –forms a great part of our country ’s heritage and culture. It is estimated thatthere are over two million saunas in Finland. For a population of 5.3 million, this equals to an average of one per household. For Finnish people sauna is a place to relax, purifying both body and mind. Whether an electric sauna in a modern business environment or an old-fashioned wood-burning sauna by a lakeside cottage, a sauna is always near you.NORTHERN LIGHTSOne of the most remarkable features of Finland is light.
