Imatra

Imatra lies along the Vuoksi River in southeastern Finland, where water from Lake Saimaa passes through a low, forested landscape near the Russian border. The city is defined by Imatrankoski, among Finland’s oldest tourist attractions and one of its designated national landscapes; the rapids are released from the dam for scheduled displays. Above the gorge stands Imatran Valtionhotelli, a landmark Art Nouveau hotel completed in 1903. The Vuoksi has also long powered local industry, an important part of Imatra’s identity.
