Aland

Aland province in and of itself is a rather unique place to visit. There are a lot of good reasons to travel to Finland that are right there in Aland. In addition to its natural beauty and local attractions, Aland is unique since it sits on the very edge of the Finnish mainland, linking to Sweden. As a result, Aland has a large number of its own laws, customs, and administration. Additionally, the official language of Aland is really Swedish, with many Finns speaking both languages fluently.

With more than 6,500 islands that are all easily accessible via bridges and boats, Aland is a large portion of the coast that encircles Lakeland. There are 120 of these islands, but only 60 of them are inhabited; the rest are open to discovery and nature.

Its land is not mountainous or challenging, the landscape and vista are beautiful, and there are numerous historical monuments like the Ruins of Bomarsund and Kastelholm Castle that you may explore. Aland is also known for its simple access via bicycle and plenty of bike rental shops. Golfing, the naval museum, and the tranquil seaside are other attractions.
