Things to do in the Jyväskylä Region

In the Jyväskylä Region, magnificent lake nature and a wide range of outdoor activities are always close at hand. In the heart of the Jyväskylä Region, known as the Sauna Region of the World, the gentle heat of the sauna offers a true sense of well-being. Balancing this is a vibrant urban culture with events, museums and shopping opportunities. The Jyväskylä Region is also home to Alvar Aalto’s world-famous architecture, three UNESCO World Heritage Sites offering five UNESCO-listed places to visit, and the City of Light, which illuminates the darkness in spectacular fashion.
