Early summer has
arrived in Finnish Lapland, and with it comes one of the region’s most
distinctive natural phenomena: the Midnight Sun. In Rovaniemi, the official
Midnight Sun period begins in early June and continues until early July, when
the sun remains above the horizon around the clock. When you visit Rovaniemi
and Lapland at this time of year, you get a chance to experience the landscape
in a completely different light – pun intended!
