Lordi Square

Highlight • Monument

Lordi is a very popular metal band from Finland. That's why the place was named so. I didn't know that when I visited the city, even though I listen to exactly this kind of music.

Santa Claus Holiday Village

Highlight • Settlement

Christmas is here until you drop. The huts for overnight stays are a good deal for the comfort offered, depending on the season and occupancy.

Santa Claus' Main Post Office

Highlight • Rest Area

Inside you can see and read many letters that were sent to the good man. It's very interesting.

Santa Claus Village

Highlight • Settlement

What hard nerves. The waiting for the picture is free, the picture with the benevolent is then clearly in double digits.

Arctic Circle crossing at Santa Claus Village

Highlight • Monument

Santa Claus Village sits right on the Arctic Circle, bit touristy but good fun and definitely worth a visit if you’re passing through Rovaniemi.

Arctic Circle Crossing in Napapiiri

Highlight • Monument

Unfortunately there are no bicycle parking spaces at Santa. There is only a small rack for 5 bicycles. The people at the information desk didn't know what to do either!
