"Saimaa region". This chapter of the journey is dedicated to two
towns of Eastern Finland, i.e. Lappeenranta and Imatra. The two towns are
located pretty close to the border of Finland and Russia. The distance between
Lappeenranta and Imatra is just 40 kilometers, so there are neighbors. This
region around the Lake Saimaa is one of the most, if not the most, beautiful
regions in Finland. Breathtaking views of the lake, amazing nature, a feeling
of peaceful silence, and, at the same time, a crowded place full of tourists
and citizens.
