📍A must-visit on your life list: Finland🇫🇮

🇫🇮Finland is a place worth visiting. The people and public security I met throughout the trip were very good, and the scenery was of course beautiful. Here are some attractions and experiences: Helsinki, the capital of Finland 📍Kappeli Glass Coffee Shop (must make reservations in advance), their salmon soup must be tried🌟, we also ordered a beef (optional)😅 📍At the Helsinki market near the Ferris wheel in the harbor, I ate at a fish market where oysters and seafood were fresh and delicious, and the owner was very friendly🌟 📍Helsinki Cathedral (White Church) 📍Uspensky Cathedral (Red Cathedral) ‼ ️The above two churches are nearby, so you can also check in. One day is enough for this capital, so there is no need to stay too long. ✈️ Rovaniemi 📍Santa Claus Village (North Pole Line, stroll around the surrounding scenery and take photos) is full of Christmas atmosphere. If you have time, you can queue up to meet Santa Claus and send postcards, but we didn’t queue up 😂 because we wanted to take more photos and feel the natural atmosphere here. 🏨You must stay at the Glass House Glass Resort (if it is not the peak season, you must book it one or two months in advance). It is located in Santa Claus Village. The hotel includes free round-trip airport transfers, breakfast and dinner (🍽️Restaurant Gallis is located next to the hotel lobby). You must eat lobster and you can also try venison)🌟Of course, the key point is that each room has an independent outdoor hot tub and sauna (soaking in the snow is very exciting) 🏨We also stayed in another red house, Santa Claus Holiday village, which is full of Christmas atmosphere. It also has an independent sauna, and in Santa Claus Village, just like other hotels, it is also good to stay for one night (I saw the northern lights as soon as I left the hotel that night🥰) 📍Ounasvaara Ski Resort is the closest to Santa Claus Village. If you have time, you can also check in and taste the local snow (be careful not to fall)😭 🍽️Santa's Salmon Place is the best restaurant in the city🌟 (There are two restaurants in Santa's Village, don't go to the new one, because it is not a branch, I don't know if it is good or not) 📍Icebreaker🛳️ (book in advance on the official website) In the morning, a car will pick you up at the hotel entrance and take you to Sweden 🇸🇪 to ride the icebreaker. It is recommended to upgrade to VIP (because there will be an independent place where you can put your personal belongings, there are also small refreshments to eat, and all activities including the legendary lobster ice float, lunch has an exclusive time and reserved seats, avoiding all the crowds, of course, the photos you take will feel worthwhile, and there is also a check-in reminder of the time on the ice (when they are eating, VIPs usually have finished eating, and there is no one else on the ice at that time, you can take photos with the shocking icebreaker. 📍The original McDonald’s, because it has changed from the northernmost to the most original since about the beginning of March, but it is also worth a pilgrimage, because it has been won by Tromsø, Norway (the next article will introduce the Norwegian itinerary) 📍Chasing the Aurora at night (the highlight - successful 🌟), we found the Aurora Hunter (Chinese), he was very responsible, tried his best to take us to chase the lights, and helped us take pictures in the weather of minus 10 degrees. Seeing that we were cold, he asked us to get in the car and wait. Every time there was an Aurora, he would remind us to get off to take pictures and appreciate it. It is very worthwhile for everyone to find him (private message if interested). Another tip: be sure to download the Aurora Apps in advance, and pay attention to the weather, because these two KP values ​​and cloud index and other factors will affect the Aurora. 📍 Visit the reindeer farm, experience the cart pulling, slowly appreciate the snow scenery of nature, and you can also take a look at their deer. According to locals, there are more deer than people in this city. 📍You must experience the husky sled. Remember to bring a cold hat, gloves, and a mask because they will go very fast, otherwise your face will turn red like me. Also, they are very tame and you can take photos with the huskies. ‼ ️Warm Tips: Weather is really important. Remember to check the weather conditions every day. There will be unexpected surprises. In addition, you basically don’t need to bring cash. Credit cards are used throughout the trip, including taxis. It is very convenient🌟
