 | Vasa Flights and Airline Tips | 1 - 10 of 10 |  |
All the roads go to Vaasa. Well, at least it's easy to get there. You can take a flight from Helsinki or Stockholm, board a train from Helsinki or take the ferry from Umeå, Sweden. Regular bus tours are also arranged from anywhere around Finland.
A friend of mine also arrived from Germany with his motorcycle. His eyes were shining when he told: '400 km and no traffic lights!' I guess Finland is a nice country to drive around :-)
You can experience Vaasa easily by walking or biking. It's a small city. Leave a Comment Theme: Train

Northern Kvarken is a narrow region in the Gulf of Bothnia separating the Bothnian Bay from the Bothnian Sea. The distance between Swedish mainland and Finnish mainland is around 80 km and only 25 km between the outer most islands. In July 2006, the area of the Kvarken Archipelago was added as an extension to the World Heritage site of the High Coast. Therefore, becoming the first Natural Heritage Site in Finland.
This unique stony archipelago has been created by continuing land uplift after the melting of the continental ice sheet 10,000 to 24,000 years ago. Numbering some 5,600 islands and islets, the area extends approximately 70 km in an east-west direction, and 60 km in a north-south direction. Leave a Comment Directions: Best reached by boat

The Vaasa Church was planned by architect C.A. Setterberg and consecrated in 1869. The church built in an English neo-gothic style has a capacity of almost 900 people. The last restoration took place in the year 2000. The first Vaasa Church was destroyed by the Vaasa Fire in 1852, only the stone ruins are left today.
