Kemi. Kaupungintalolta. View of the Town

Though small when compared to Russia, Finland knows how to make full use of what nature has given it. Some people wonder why Russians, who have a lot of snow, cold winters, and natural beauty, go to Finland in winter; for the Finns, the cold season is a hot tourist season.

You can see one of the streets of Kemi, a common Finnish town, and in the distance, you can see a factory producing paper and cartons. Kemi does not look like a resort, but tourism has a significant share in the town’s budget.
