Warmed by the Gulf Stream, Finland enjoys four distinct seasons. In the land of the Midnight Sun, the lush countryside basks in nurturing sunshine for 15 hours a day during summer. In the northern regions, the sun shines 24 hours a day for two months of the year. Follow the scenic King’s Road that stretches west of Helsinki to the 770-year-old former capital of Turku and east to the Lake District. Gaze upon the largest archipelago in Europe created by thousands of islands cradling the southern coast. Explore the sparsely inhabited landscape of Lapland above the Arctic Circle in the north. Find a vibrant, sophisticated culture of fascinating history and unspoiled natural beauty in this star of the Nordic Countries.
