Naantali is one of Finland’s most popular tourist towns, not least thanks to the fact that “Kultaranta”, the summer residence of the President of Finland with its beautiful garden is located here. The town is famous for its spa hotel, which offers a luxurious way of spending your holiday.
Art and music are also an important part of Naantali. Every year a large music festival is arranged here. Excellent restaurants, cosy cafés, art galleries and charming shops contribute to the idyllic atmosphere in this small town. This sunshine town is definitely worth a visit! |  |  |
