YES WE ARE NEXT STEP IN CHINA PRESENTING FINLAND Finland is a little hidden gem located far up North in Scandinavia. Even if we might be small in size, we’re big in things to discover. We have the cleanest air in the world and landscapes are second to none. We are a country of thousands of lakes and forests – which are never far away from wherever you are. Wish to visit to Santa, admire the Northern Lights or experience the peace of the countryside & cottage life and sauna? There are 39 national parks in Finland, and in 2017, when Finland celebrates its 100 years as an independent country, the 40th national park will be inaugurated. They’re scattered around the country’s archipelago, lakes, forests, peat lands and fells, and showcase the areas’ various natural characteristics, such as rapids, rift valleys and eskers. The thrill of witnessing the Aurora Borealis is a once-in-a-lifetime experience for many. The Northern Lights are visible on roughly 200 nights a year in Finland – or every other clear night. The Finnish food products is the surprising fact that they are often completely free of charge and have grown in the wild. Finnish berries and fruits are packed with sweet fl avours as well as healthy vitamins and fl avonoids. Finns scour the vast forests for these delicious treasures along with tasty mushrooms and fresh wild herbs. Finland is pure Scandinavian country with clean air and water and friendly people. Finns are talkative, hospitable and warm-hearted folks. We Finns are pretty peculiar people and secretly enjoy conveying that image of ourselves, even if it’s not always true. Finland is sport country. Even if we are just 5 million people we manage to create high level athletes for many major sports in the world. When you think you’ve seen and experienced it all, it’s time to explore Finland. Lonely Planet did and listed us as one of the TOP 3 travel destinations for 2017. Welcome to explore Finland.
