MANARAT ALMUSAFER FOR TRAVEL AND TOURISM: Rovaniemi

Rovaniemi Finland

Situated just south of the Arctic Circle, Rovaniemi is the Finnish capital of Lapland. It's located at the meeting point of Lapland's powerful rivers Kemijoki and Ounasjoki. Beautiful colours all year round, relatively warm summers, proper snowy winters, Santa Claus, numerous sport resorts, excellent hotels and services, for all this and more Rovaniemi is a must-visit northern stop. Moreover, it's a grand spot to explore the Lapland region and to observe the Aurora Borealis or Northern Lights. The Lumberjack Candle Bridge, Jätkänkynttilä, has become a symbol of Rovaniemi. The bridge has a tall pylon with bright yellow light on top and a massive bronze lumberjack statue. The Arktikum museum is a one-stop cultural centre for all things Arctic, it's dedicated to exhibits relating to Lapland's geology, climate, plants, animal life and cultures. Aside from the exhibits, the Arktikum's highlight is definitely its long glass corridor with its views on the river behind the building. Outside Arktikum there's a garden of arctic plants. Rovaniemi is, of course, Santa Claus hometown. At Santa Claus Village you can meet Santa Claus, send friends and relatives greetings from the Arctic Circle at the Santa Claus Post Office and visit the Christmas Exhibition, which explains some of the Christmas traditions from around the world. Rovaniemi is the best place to make a Christmas wishlist and to experience awe-inspiring wilderness, traditional Sámi culture, and enjoy a range of different activities surrounded by a wonderful natural landscape.
