Information about Scandinavian countries
Finland
Finland’s landscapes are a glorious variation on the themes of forest and water, where the comforts of modern
life are never far away. Yet each region has its distinct character, from the wilds of Lapland to the inspiring
lakes of the East and the archipelagos of the South-West. Finland is full of interesting contrasts,
such as the four seasons, the midnight sun and the long winter nights and the different cultural heritages ot
the Eastern and Western parts of the country.
Sweden
Sweden is the third largest country in western Europe.
Because of its long, narrow shape and northerly location, the landscape is highly diversified.
Norway
Norway has a population of about 4,6 million and covers an area of 385,155 square kilometres.
The official Head of State is King Harald V. Capital city: Oslo.
Languages: Norwegian bokmål, Norwegian nynorsk and Sami
Denmark
Denmark is home to the little mermaid, vikings, royalty, great design, fairytales, and the world's happiest people!
The Danish capital is a fascinating and unique Scandinavian city mixing old and new.
Iceland
Iceland is not only closer than you think, but far different than you ever imagined.
Where else can you witness such marvels of Mother Nature as a tremendous icecap and several glaciers,
spouting geysers and steaming solfataras, volcanoes (hopefully dormant), raging rivers and magnificent
waterfalls, a multitude of birds, cavorting whales just offshore and many other surprises.
