the home of nomadic reindeer herders and of course Lapland's most
famous resident - Santa Claus!
Language: Finnish
Currency: Euro however English pounds are widely accepted.

Lapland only has an average of 5 hours of daylight a day in December,
known as "grey light" - this is generally between 10 am
and 3 pm - the rest of the time is like night time. You might find
it useful to pack a torch!
