Speaking of travelling, a few years back Chinese people mostly chose domestic destinations, however, in recent years we often hear this word “current limiting” during holidays like the National Day. For safety’s sake, Gulangyyu Island in Xiamen decided to limit the number of tourists; the Broken Bridge on Westlake in Hangzhou must limit visitors; Tiananmen Square set limit for the number of visitors to keep the square from becoming the “people’s square”. Domestic travels are now safety first, traveling second.
Compared with the overly crowded conditions of scenic spots in China, some tourist areas outside China is no better. Southeast Asia has already been taken over by Chinese tourists, monks in Thailand can speak fluent Chinese, large shopping malls in Paris and London all hire Chinese shopping guides and America survives from senior Chinese tourists for the long distance but you can still hear people speaking various Chinese dialects there.
Is there a place that is not too far away, not too crowded and has a good view? We recommend you today to take a chance on Finland, home country of Myllyn Paras.
Finland is in Northern Europe. You may feel it’s quite far away but as a matter of fact Finland is only one Russia away from China (haha). The non-stop flight from Shanghai to Helsinki, capital of Finland takes 9 hours, shorter than to Paris or London. Finland is the 8th largest country in Europe with a territory of over 300,000 km2, 53 times bigger than Shanghai and a population of 5 million, less than a quarter of the population of Shanghai. To describe Finland as a country with vast territory but a sparse population cannot be too suitable. The key is, not like Paris and London, Finland has not yet drawn so much attention of the Chinese tourists.
Finland is known as the “land of thousand lakes” with more than 180,000 pristine lakes. Forest coverage rate is 68% which is quite amazing. Air quality ranks continuously on top among all countries in the world. Finnish nature is beautiful and Finnish people are honest. Finland is also one of the world’s safest countries.
October in Finland is colorful and beautiful. You can go to Lapland in the north to enjoy the splendid polar light or go to capital city Helsinki to experience the culture and creativity of Finland. According to US Metropolis magazine, Helsinki places third in the 2016 ranking of the best cities to live in.
Headquarters of Myllyn Paras locates in a small town named Hyvinkää, 50 km away from Helsinki. The company is surrounded by forests. The environment is delectable and the air is refreshing. All our oatmeal products are 100% manufactured and packed there and thus the quality is superb.
