The Santa Claus Village includes a post office which handles children’s letters to the Old Gentleman dispatched from all over the world, as well as the opportunity to meet Santa himself and have your photo taken with him in his grotto. There’s a SantaPark theme park nearby too.

The Lapland Province extends from the northernmost shores of the Baltic in the south through forests that become gradually thinner as the terrain begins to rise in the north. The region remains home to a small population of indigenous Lapps or Same, and you can visit an excellent museum of their culture at Inari.
