The average temperature in Finland in the winter is less than zero degrees Celsius and in summer can reach as high as 30 degrees Celsius. The economic drive in Finland is based primarily around the services industry, with other major contributors being manufacturing and refining. Global cellular telephone giant, Nokia, is the biggest company in Finland. The primary airport in and out of Finland is the Helsinki-Vantaa International Airport in Helsinki.

Finland is a popular tourist destination for history buffs and nature lovers alike. If you want to see a part of Finland’s incredible and long history, take a trip to the City of Helsinki where you’ll find many different sites to visit of great interest and importance to the history of the country. One of the most popular of these destinations is the Fortress of Suomenlinna which is built on an island in the Helsinki Harbor. While you’re there, visiting this fortress isn’t the only thing to do – the island itself has a great number of museums, art galleries and other entertainment. If castles are your thing then you might also enjoy an outing toe St. Olaf’s Castle in the small town of Olavinlinna. It is more than five hundred years old and many visitors say it looks more like a castle from a Disney movie than from real life.

These two examples are part of many places to visit in Finland. Trips to The Aland Islands, Turku and some of the many different museums and galleries around the country are also highly recommended.
