  • Lainio Snow Village in Finnish Lapland

    The snow village of Lainio is located 200 km north of the Arctic Circle. The Lainio Snow Village is a Christmas wonder set in a magical snow-covered winter landscape in Lainio, Finland's Lapland. The village was first created by Finnish ice artists, who have made dozens of snow and ice sculptures and igloos that have become world-famous. Those with an active interest in the sights of Finland may have noticed that such constructions are quite common in the country. A trip to the village of Lainio is a must for visitors to the ski resorts of Levi and Julläs, and from Kittilä Airport it's a 15 to 20 minute drive. Part of the way there is through snow-covered forest, which is already a spectacular sight in itself. The village is fun for children and adults alike. The Snow Village, known simply as Snow Village, is rebuilt every year. In our review, we hang back on 7 frequently asked questions: What time of year to visit Lanio? When was the Snow Village built?

One of them is a real working hotel with 30 rooms of varying levels of comfort. Inside and outside everything is made of ice and snow, the corridors are beautifully lit, images and patterns have been carved into the walls and animal figures have been installed.

There are also separate rooms for honeymooners, who get ice shoes instead of the usual slippers. Occasionally there are rousing discos. There is an ice slide for children right in the hotel. It's not too big so kids as well as kids who are older can negotiate the slopes. 5. Café, ice bar and other facilities in the village There is also a casual café in the village. So, you can also choose your favourite cocktail at the cosy ice bar. Although it does not offer a wide range of food, its prices are quite affordable.

  • Norway's sights

    Norway is known for its natural beauty and outdoor activities. Some popular sights in Norway include: The Fjords The Northern Lights The Midnight Sun The Vigeland Park The Stave Churches The Tromsø 1. The Fjords Norway is home to some of the most spectacular fjords in the world, such as the Geirangerfjord and the Nærøyfjord. These narrow inlets of the sea are surrounded by towering cliffs and offer opportunities for hiking, kayaking, and sightseeing. 2. The Northern Lights Norway is one of the best places in the world to see the aurora borealis, or Northern Lights. The best time to see them is during the winter months when the nights are longest. 3. The Midnight Sun The Midnight Sun: During the summer months, Norway experiences the midnight sun, where the sun never fully sets and the sky remains light even at night. This phenomenon can be seen above the Arctic Circle. 4. The Vigeland Park The Vigeland Park in Oslo is a public park that features sculptures by Gustav Vigeland. It is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Norway and a must-see for art lovers. 5. The Stave Churches Norway is home to many ancient stave churches, which are wooden churches built during the Middle Ages. Some of the most well-known stave churches include the Borgund Stave Church and the Hopperstad Stave Church. 6. The Tromsø The Tromsø city is known as the 'Gateway to the Arctic'. It is a city located in Northern Norway, is the largest city in the Arctic, and offers a variety of activities such as dog sledding, snowmobiling, and reindeer sledding. Tromsø is the northernmost major city in Norway. Or the largest of the northern ones, as you prefer. It's at about the same latitude as our own Pevek and Dudinka and is considered the third largest polar city in the world, after Murmansk and Norilsk. The climate here is relatively mild thanks to the Gulf Stream: the average November temperature is only -1,1 degree (in Murmansk -4,8, in Pevek -16,7, in Dudinka -23). As Tromsø is located above the Arctic Circle, it has several facilities that have the status of "the world's northernmost". For example, the football club of the same name, as well as a planetarium and a botanical garden. Tromsø is considered one of the best places in the world to watch the northern lights (the season lasts from September to March). In summer, tourists go there to watch the midnight sun.
