Lahti

Lahti lies along the southern shore of Lake Vesijärvi, where the Salpausselkä ridge meets the forests and lakes of southern Finland. Winter sport is central to the city’s identity: the Lahti Ski Games have been held at the Sports Centre since 1923, and its ski jumps remain prominent landmarks. Near the harbour, the timber-built Sibelius Hall, completed in 2000, serves as a concert and congress venue beside the former Vesijärvi carpentry works. In summer, the waterfront and harbour draw city life towards the lake, while the wooded ridge keeps outdoor terrain close to the centre.
