Finland is located in Northern Europe and borders Norway, Sweden, and Russia. It is one of the world’s most technologically developed countries. Helsinki, the capital, is a lively city on the Baltic Sea where you can find the Suomenlinna sea fortress built in the 18th century. The rural wilderness of Finland is a great place for hiking, camping, and seeing the phenomena such as the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) and the Midnight Sun. Many national parks with both easy and difficult hiking routes dot the countryside. Stepping into a sauna after a hike or ice fishing is an important part of Finnish culture and there are over 2 million in total all over the country.
