There is anything in Finland?
Finland is one of the main Nordic countries are unique. Country with thousands of lakes and which has many islands as much as 187 000-an is bordered by several countries. Finland is also one of the Nordic countries vastly different origins or not allied with each other such as Sweden, Norway, or Denmark. Finland is one of the main allied with its neighbors, namely Estonia. Because it is believed, the Finnish -people came from the Ural Mountains and the language they use is very different from the language - other Nordic languages. in reports from pages VisitFinland, Finland has some interesting things. What is it?
Aurora Borealis
countries that are be surrounded arctic natural phenomenon can definitely see this one, not with the exception of Finland. We can see the Aurora during a 200-day per year. See aurora need a clear sky and away from light pollution. In one province, namely Finnish Lapland, we can see the Aurora from late autumn to early spring (September to March) at midnight. According to legend Sami tribe in the north of Finland, Aurora comes from arctic foxes walking in arctic snow with its tail emitting light into the sky. In Finland myth called "Revontulet" which means fox fire.
Midnight Sun
This incident occurred only during the summer progresses, from the month of May to August. The sun will be visible throughout the day in the arctic region who entered the ring as Lapland. In the summer, many festivals - rock and metal music festival in Finland
Sauna
Sauna or soak in hot water has become a culture and a tradition in Finnish society. There are about 2 million saunas spread throughout Finland. People - people went to the Finnish sauna just to relax and calm the mind
thousands lake
Finland indeed deserves to be called as the land of a thousand lakes, because of the fact that there are 188 000 lakes in the country, from a large size to small makes finnish looks different from other European countries. Finnish people visit the lake each summer, where they like fishing, kanoing, and sailing on the lake.
Santa Claus real
Many people believe that Santa Claus comes from Finland and stayed in the circumference of the Arctic in the country. I wonder what is in their minds, perhaps northern Finland (lapland) full of snow made them think about it.

Spotting the sun is quite rare in Finland so I guess the shot there int he sunset was a lucky one. Nice.
thank you @anduweb :)
I would not say it’s rare... we have the sun every day, except in the most northern parts where it does not show itself for about two months in the wintertime. 95% of the people living in Finland will have daylight every day :)
