Arktikum, the Finnish Arctic Museum and Science Centre
The Arctic Museum is located in the center of Rovaniemi, with a glass corridor of over 120 meters, resembling a protruding transparent cave in the wilderness, extending to the banks of the Ounas River, which is very impressive. The museum is divided into two floors and has many small exhibition halls.

Rovaniemi Church
The church is not very big, but its overall design is exquisitely beautiful, especially when covered by heavy snow, it appears even more sacred and solemn. The interior of the church is relatively ordinary, but accompanied by the Jesus mural on the facade, it unexpectedly brings a sense of tranquility to people, making it a good place to escape the hustle and bustle and quietly contemplate.
