Finland amazes with its beauty.
Where else in the world are there such clear lakes? They can not only swim, you can drink from them. And in Finland you can drink water directly from the tap, without using filters, because the water is already clean and tasty. Finland has almost 200,000 lakes. Polluted lakes began to be cleaned together 50 years ago. Today, Finland is the world leader in research and development in the use and purification of water.
The largest lake in Finland - Lake Saimaa - the pearl of the Lake District in the east of the country. Occupying an area of 4,400 square kilometers, it is the fourth largest natural lake in Europe.
The deepest lake in Finland, Päijänne, is 95.3 m deep. The lake stretches for 120 km from the city of Lahti to Jyväskylä. It is very popular among the Finns.
