Where is Santa's residence located?
Santa's main residence is located above the Arctic Circle in magical Lapland, in the Finnish city of Rovaniemi. It is a fabulous place with picturesque landscapes, snow-covered forests, and a Christmas atmosphere that reigns here all year round. The town has long been a symbol of the New Year's miracle and a favorite destination for tourists from all over the world.
Here, everyone can meet Santa, talk to him and take a photo together. Rovaniemi also has a real fairy-tale post office, which receives millions of letters from children from all over the world. Visitors have the opportunity to write a letter and send it with a special Arctic Circle stamp. The Elves' Workshop employs Santa's helpers who make toys and prepare gifts for children.
One of the main attractions is crossing the Arctic Circle, which is marked with a special certificate for tourists. In winter, the residence is filled with Christmas markets, reindeer and dog sledding, and exciting winter games.
