Lapinjärvi

Finland

This tiny bilingual municipality in southern Finland's Uusimaa region is known for varied landscapes: open farmland in its centre recalls the plains of South Ostrobothnia, while rolling hills rise to the north and large rocky forests spread to the south. Lake Lapinjärvi sits close to the village centre, and Swedish is spoken alongside Finnish by a significant share of residents.
