If Strasbourg shines as the European capital of Christmas, there's no doubt that Rovaniemi is THE ultimate Christmas city and, most importantly, the home of our beloved Santa Claus. So, we couldn't be more thrilled to hear that a direct flight between Paris and this enchanted destination will soon be operated by Finnair.

The destination where Santa Claus’ village is located
Get your thick jackets, thermal clothing, gloves, and hats ready! You’re about to cross the Arctic Circle to reach Finnish Lapland. In this part of the world, summer is filled with a sun that never sets, while winter brings a thick white blanket of snow. And in Rovaniemi specifically, there’s a timeless atmosphere all around. Here, you’ll coexist with astonishing nature, as well as reindeer and festive decorations. Among the must-sees, don’t miss out on Santa Claus Village, Santa Park, or the local museums: Arktikum dedicated to the Arctic, or the Pilke Science Centre focused on Scandinavian forests. Skiing, snowmobiling...and dog sledding are also among the region's top activities once winter arrives.
