As October arrives and the brief Nordic autumn lingers reluctantly, winter in Finland has already extended its invitation: calling those who love its icy exterior yet yearn for its fiery passion to embark on a rendezvous called “100 Days of Polar Night, Arctic Magic & Ultimate Experience.”
This rendezvous with Finland’s winter will last for three months and is jointly created by Visit Finland and Finnair. The journey officially begins with the careful preparation of your luggage. Over these three months, you will chase the dazzling and magnificent aurora borealis; experience the dreamlike magic of Christmas; and take part in 18 winter activities including snowfield exploration, ice-breaking journeys, and Arctic sledding.
The Favor of Aurora
Perhaps the most magical part of this 100-day adventure book is the eternal aurora in northern Finland.
Before the resplendent aurora, all words seem inadequate—you’ll find no natural phenomenon that can compare. In the pristine, clear night sky of the Arctic, it dances wildly like fireworks, swirls joyfully like a rainbow, morphing fluidly and playfully flickering. You’ll surely marvel at nature’s incredible artistry, and you may even believe that this light is truly the torch guiding souls to heaven. In fact, there are stories about the aurora in ancient Chinese legends, one telling of a girl named Fubao who became pregnant just by catching a glimpse of the aurora, later giving birth to the Yellow Emperor, Xuanyuan.
In the pitch-black Arctic night, the Aurora goddess, Aurora, sways her skirt and showers down beams of radiant light. Don’t you want to personally experience the kind of light that could make a maiden pregnant with just one glance?
Finland’s long winter is ever-changing—three months is enough for you to taste all its flavors and to pack these countless unforgettable experiences before setting off again.
