The cool beauty of the North, Finland, is the most sparsely populated country in the European Union. It raises increasing interest around the world. People come to Finland, not only to admire the beautiful scenery, but also to trade, train, and work. In addition to natural peace, in Finland you can find vibrant city life and a well-functioning, modern society.
Finland has many faces. The maritime atmosphere of the southern coast shifts through the idyll of the Finnish Lake District to the rugged beauty of Lapland. Photographer Esko Jämsä has captured impressive moments from Finnish nature and city life for Finland Impressions. The texts of Editor Markku Heikkilä accompany the photographs and offer interesting observations of the Finnish way of life.
