Tourism in Finland - Best Tourist Attractions
Finland is a sovereign state in Northern Europe. The country has land borders with Sweden to the northwest, Norway to the north, and Russia to the east. To the south is the Gulf of Finland with Estonia on the opposite side. Finland is a Nordic country and, together with Scandinavia, is situated in the geographical region of Fennoscandia.
Finland's population is 5.5 million (2016), and the majority of the population is concentrated in the southern region. 88.7% of the population is Finnish and speaks Finnish, a Uralic language unrelated to the Scandinavian languages; next come the Finland-Swedes (5.3%). Finland is the eighth-largest country in Europe and the most sparsely populated country in the European Union. It is a parliamentary republic with a central government based in the capital city of Helsinki, local governments in 311 municipalities, and one autonomous region, the Åland Islands. Over 1.4 million people live in the Greater Helsinki metropolitan area, which produces one third of the country's GDP.
Finland was inhabited when the last ice age ended, approximately 9000 BCE. The first settlers left behind artifacts that present characteristics shared with those found in Estonia, Russia, and Norway. The earliest people were hunter-gatherers, using stone tools. The first pottery appeared in 5200 BCE, when the Comb Ceramic culture was introduced. The arrival of the Corded Ware culture in southern coastal Finland between 3000 and 2500 BCE may have coincided with the start of agriculture. The Bronze Age and Iron Age were characterised by extensive contacts with other cultures in the Fennoscandian and Baltic regions and the sedentary farming inhabitation increased towards the end of Iron Age. At the time Finland had three main cultural areas, Southwest Finland, Tavastia and Karelia, as reflected in contemporary jewellery.
From the late 13th century, Finland gradually became an integral part of Sweden through the crusades and the Swedish part-colonisation of coastal Finland, a legacy reflected in the prevalence of the Swedish language and its official status. In 1809, Finland was incorporated into the Russian Empire as the autonomous Grand Duchy of Finland. In 1906, Finland became the first European state to grant all adult citizens the right to vote, and the first in the world to give all adult citizens the right to run for public office.
Following the 1917 Russian Revolution, Finland declared itself independent. In 1918, the fledgling state was divided by civil war, with the Bolshevik-leaning Red Guard supported by the equally new Soviet Russia, fighting the White Guard, supported by the German Empire. After a brief attempt to establish a kingdom, the country became a republic. During World War II, the Soviet Union sought repeatedly to occupy Finland, with Finland losing parts of Karelia, Salla, Kuusamo, Petsamo and some islands, but retaining independence.
Finland joined the United Nations in 1955 and established an official policy of neutrality. The Finno-Soviet Treaty of 1948 gave the Soviet Union some leverage in Finnish domestic politics during the Cold War era. Finland joined the OECD in 1969, the NATO Partnership for Peace in 1994, the European Union in 1995, the Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council in 1997, and finally the Eurozone at its inception, in 1999.
Finland was a relative latecomer to industrialisation, remaining a largely agrarian country until the 1950s. After World War II, the Soviet Union demanded war reparations from Finland not only in money but also in material, such as ships and machinery. This forced Finland to industrialise. It rapidly developed an advanced economy while building an extensive welfare state based on the Nordic model, resulting in widespread prosperity and one of the highest per capita incomes in the world. Finland is a top performer in numerous metrics of national performance, including education, economic competitiveness, civil liberties, quality of life, and human development. In 2015, Finland was ranked first in the World Human Capital and the Press Freedom Index and as the most stable country in the world during 2011–2016 in the Fragile States Index. A large majority of Finns are members of the Evangelical Lutheran Church.

WHAT TO DO IN FINLAND'S LAKELAND in 60 seconds
It’s never too “lake” for Finland! On our memorable journey through Europe’s largest lake district, we met angry birds, singing captains and (almost) Santa Claus. What else there is to do? Here’s the answer in 60 seconds!

It went all too fast? You want the details? No problem.
Here are our recommendations in order of appearance:
00:07 Hotelli Anttolanhovi, Anttola
Accomodations in the Lakeland often come with a lake view, like the Hotelli Anttolanhovi. It’s the perfect example for Finlands large accomodation facilities for every budget, from private villas to tents.
00:10 Saimaa Canoeing, Puumala
Canoeing was our favourite way of exploring the Lake Saimaa. It’s so peaceful out in the waters around Puumala! More:
00:12 Mikkelipuisto Park, Mikkeli
Stand-up paddling can also be arranged in lots of places, and it’s great fun. The perfectly calm and deserted lakes are great for practicing!
00:16 “Lady of the Lake” Ecoboat
What makes this cruise memorable is its captain! Arto is a very funny and knowledgable guy with lots of stories to tell and most importantly: a great accordion player! More:
00:18 Ridge Road 4792, Punkaharju
Probably the most spectacular road of the Lakeland! Biking through the ridge area is a lot of fun, especially with (E-)fatbikes. We rented them here:
00:23 Kaarnaniemi Peninsula, Punkarharju
Picking mushrooms and berries is a national hobby. They are just everywhere – even next to your bungalow, just 10 metres away from your little kitchen. Very practical.
00:27 Ollinmäki winery, Anttola
From wine to liquor to schnapps: It’s amazing what Finns can make out of their lingonberries, cloudberries and raspberries. You can taste it yourself at this little winery. More:
00:33 Okkola Holiday Cottages, Puumala
Pastriewise it doesn’t get much more Finnish than Karelian pies. Lovely cottage owner Paula offers brilliant baking courses.
00:35 Hanhiniitty Smithy, Puumala
Finnish knifes are world-known. If you want to know and experience why, you can visit Martti in his smithy. He also rents canoes, so we did that! More:
00:37 Santa’s Summer Cottage, Mikkeli
The Kenkävero vicarage is a typical example for Finnish mansions that have been turned into tourist attractions. Including “Santa’s summer hideaway”, a cute and affectionately equipped hut. More:
00:42 MS Punkaharju, Savonlinna
Another fun way of exploring Lake Saimaa is a steamboat cruise departing daily from Savonlinna harbour. More:
00:44 Olavinlinna Castle, Savonlinna
Built on an island of Savonlinna, this beautiful castle with great views over the town is the “northernmost medieval stone fortress still standing”. Finns love their superlatives.
00:46 Metsälinna Pavilion, Ristiina
Ristiina is home to the Metsälinna couple dance venue. This is where the villagers meet to have some drinks and dance to Finnish tango and soft Rock’n’Roll. It was a fascinating and truly original experience.
00:48 Särkänniemi Park, Tampere
Särkänniemi offers lots of fun rollercoasters. A great change to the relaxing-on-the-water journey parts. More:
00:54 Pyynikki Observation Tower, Tampere
For the best view over Tampere head to the observation tower on the hill of Pyynikki Park.
00:56 Sahanlahti Resort, Puumala
Captain Arto (see 00:16) actually also teaches you how to make birch whisks for your typical Finnish sauna experience. Once you have bound your whisk properly, hop into your…
00:57 Smoke Sauna
…smoke sauna! The Sahanlahti Resort offers this ancestral type of sauna without a chimney, where they make a fire in a stove until it is hot enough and then ventilate the smoke out.
01:01 Moro Sky Bar, Tampere
This fancy cocktail bar is the highest of Finland (yep, another superlative). It has a tremendous view over the city of Tampere and a stylish interior.
01:03 Tree Tents, Hotelli Anttolanhovi
Wanna sleep like a bird in a tree? The suspended tree tents of Anttolanhovi are a great budget option. A bit shaky at first, but very comfy in a second.
Thanks to public link, Visit Saimaa, Visit Puumala and Visit Tampere for making this possible.
