Trip to Salo

Views of city of Salo. Salo is a city in South-West Finland., about 55 km. from Turku and 110 km. from Helsinki. Salo is mostly known for electronic industry (Salora TV:s 1970's) and for Nokia (1990s-2012?). Salo can be called for Nokia-City. There is a big production plant of Nokia in Salo. In early 2012 Nokia announced that all production plants in Europe will be closed down - this means that unemployment figures will rise in the city. The other mobile phone producer Benefon (nowadays GeoCentrics) is from Salo - as the president of FInland, Mr. Sauli Niinistö.

Many of foreign visitors in the city come to Salo to visit Nokia factories. Salo can reached by train or bus (and by own car). Nearest airports are in Turku and Helsinki.

No ordinary Destination / Lapland - The North of Finland

Finnish Lapland is the extraordinary region on the northern edge of the world. It's a land full of extremes. When it’s quiet, it’s dead silent. When it’s light, it’s light and bright 24/7. And when it’s dark, it’s dark for week after week.

Lapland and northern Finland are among the world’s last wildernesses. You can experience it without hardship thanks to our modern infrastructure and wide range of services. Our biggest attraction is the wilderness that makes every other place feel ordinary.
