8Lapland, Finland
Lapland embodies the enchantment of winter like no other place on earth. This Arctic wonderland is famous for reindeer sleigh rides, husky safaris, and its association with Santa Claus. Visitors can stay in cozy glass igloos to watch the aurora borealis illuminate the sky or explore the vast, snow-laden wilderness on snowmobiles. Rovaniemi, known as Santa Claus Village, adds a whimsical touch to this icy retreat.
