Finland
One of the most intriguing phenomena that continue to mystify and allure tourists worldwide are the Northern Lights or the Aurora Borealis. These stunning light displays paint the night sky with strokes of green, pink, soft yellow, blue, and red, creating an ethereal vista that is nothing short of surreal. One of the few places in the world where you can witness this mind-blowing spectacle is in Finland, specifically Lapland, located in the far north of the country. Lapland, renowned for its glittering winter landscapes and home to Santa Claus, also serves as a magnificent stage for the Aurora Borealis.
Finland’s vast wilderness and Nordic charm are year-round draws. However, the best time to visit depends on your interests.
For example, Helsinki’s swanky culture scene is best experienced in spring and summer, when the streets are quieter (and less chilly). In winter, you can join locals in dancing the night away at Kallio or Sideways festivals.
Finland is title as the "country of lakes": most of it is covered with a network of lakes and rivers, about a third of its territory is swampy. This is a predominantly flat country, only somewhere rocks come out, and in the north-west the northern end of the Scandinavian mountains stretches, although its height in this place is small and reaches a maximum of 1328 m.
