Finland as a tour and holiday destination
Finland, with around 180,000 islands and a similar number of lakes, combines remote wilderness with buzzing cities.Helsinki, the capital of Finland and the ‘daughter of the Baltic’, welcomes visitors with a small-town feel whilst being a thriving city. The Art Nouveau buildings, parks and carefully preserved museums add to the charm of this city. Helsinki also celebrates festivals in style, whether it’s the Helsinki-Paiva, the birthday of the city with concerts, exhibitions and performances, or the Joulu, the open-air Christmas market sparkling with festive lights.
