Santa Claus in Snowy Finland

No doubt it was such good fun to meet the Santa Claus and cross the magical Arctic Circle at the Santa Claus Village in Lapland especially for the Christmas holiday in December. We were also so excited sending friends and relatives greetings from the Santa Claus Main Post Office with the unique Arctic Circle postmark. Unless the trip is intended only for a festive occasion on which partying with friends and visiting the Santa are main goals, however, it might be a bad idea to go sightseeing in the beautiful Finland in extremely cold weather and during the period of shortest daylight in winter. Ease of transportation is a concern as well even for those travelling by car. Besides, smooth communication in English is not guaranteed as even staff working in Helsinki main train station are illiterate in English. Rovaniemi, Tampere, Hameenlinna, Turku, and Helsinki are all nice places to see.  Just make enough efforts to plan for your perfect trip before you set off!
