One of the most impressive wonders of Finland is the light. When the timeless summer sun gives way to the darkness of winter, the northern lights appear in the sky, drawing fantastic dancing figures among the stars.
The further north you go, the greater the chance you have of admiring them – in Finnish Lapland the Northern Lights can appear for 200 nights a year. In Helsinki and the south of the country, auroras can be seen for about 20 nights a year, possibly far away from population centres.
