CHRISTMAS TRADITIONS IN FINLAND...


Finland has a long tradition of Christmas celebrations...Many families cooks, bakes and makes decorations weeks in advance. The 24th of the December starts our celebration at 12.00 a.m. by the declaration of the Christmas Peace...Most of the shops are closed by 12.00a.m.  Everybody has put their gifts under the Christmas tree...In the evening after the dinner we will open all the gifts... And one of the very important tradition is to take a Christmas Sauna, we went to the sauna in the morning...
