Midsummer in Finland 🇫🇮 | Juhannus (2025)

Описание: 🇫🇮 Experience the Magic of Juhannus (Midsummer) in Finland! 🔥
I set out to find my first Juhannuskokko (traditional Finnish bonfire) and ended up discovering TWO in one night – one at Suolahden Majakka and a surprise second one at Kuusa Canal!

📍 Locations:
Suolahti, Finland – Bonfire lit at 20:00
Kuusa Canal – Unexpected bonfire at 21:00

📅 Filmed: Juhannusaatto (Midsummer Eve) – June 20, 2024

🔥 Why Finnish Juhannus Is Special:
✅ Bonfires (Kokko):
Ancient tradition to ward off evil spirits and ensure a good harvest.
Believed to boost fertility and protect livestock.
Today, they symbolize community and summer joy!

✅ Endless Daylight:
Sunset after 11 PM – the famous "nightless night"!
Perfect for all-night celebrations by lakes.

✅ Finnish Traditions:
Sauna before the bonfire (a must!).
Singing, dancing, and grilling sausages (nakkikioski vibes).
Young people pick 7 flowers to dream of their future spouse (legend says!).
