In the 17th century there were more than 100 ironworks situated along the picturesque southwestern coast of Finland. While most of the historic factories and villages that sprung from them have disappeared, the few that remain have been beautifully preserved and are now home to thriving artisanal communities. Entrepreneurs, talented crafts people and outdoor enthusiasts alike have moved in, drawn to the peaceful countryside and the opportunity to embrace a sustainable, slow-paced lifestyle. Visitors will discover natural beauty, art and design, local handicrafts and food, and experience authentic Finland.

Escaping to the countryside or wilderness is a national way of relaxation. Easy-going parties with friends and family remind us what life really is about – having a good time with the most important people in your life.

Often situated by water, cabins and cottages are an essential element in Finnish life, providing a physical and mental getaway from the daily grind. Forgetting the everyday worries is inevitable in retreats amid the country’s greatest resource: its rugged natural beauty.

Finland is one of the best places in Europe to go to festivals. From numerous rock, jazz, opera and folk festivals to chamber music and theatre events, there is always a party going on. Of course, you already know the sun never sets…

From large-scale rock festivals to small local happenings, you’ll find something going on more or less every day throughout the Finnish summer. The largest festivals have been around for decades and cater for all tastes in the popular music category, gathering tens of thousands of people.

When nights are almost as light as day it is possible to do all the same things that you would do in the daytime – the greatest difference comes from the incredible change in the nature of the light… It takes on a reddish-yellow color – almost like during sunrise or sunset – and everything around you is bathed in an unimaginably warm, bright light.

Getting out of a dark nightclub at 3 a.m. can be a bit confusing, as it feels more like 3 p.m. You wouldn’t be the first to swap sleep for an after-party on the beach – in full sunlight, of course.

Midsummer is a main national holiday in Finland. Originally a celebration of the summer solstice, it is typically spent with friends and family at a summer cottage away from the city, either partying or relaxing.

Midsummer is often seen as the beginning of warm summer weather and many Finns start their summer holidays on Midsummer Eve. Taking place at the end of June, longest day of the year is a key element in the festivities in the northern parts of Finland.

On a fine summer day, Finns have an overwhelming urge to get outside and get out of town. From the beautiful coastal islands to the ever-present forests and lakes everywhere and anywhere in the country, the nature is always nearby, even with the largest of cities. Some, of course, still stay in the city and enjoy slow city life under the sun.

When in the city Finns enjoy their months of sunshine (and a glass of cider) on the sidewalk and park terraces around town. Market places of all sort are another attraction. The signs are small at first – the marketplaces feature strawberries or peas eaten fresh – but by midsummer the Nordic nation has definitely defrosted.
