Lapland is Europe’s last wilderness, a true paradise for fishermen. Lapland offers many opportunities for great fishing adventures, both with the fly and lure. The fishing season is short and intense, summer nights are bright and during June and July, the sun never drops below the horizon. There are five free-flowing rivers, creeks, forest lakes, and mountain lakes and the fish never sleeps. Bring the coffee pot, matches, and something to eat so that you have enough energy to fish all through the night.

Located in the Gràcia district, this UNESCO World Heritage Site combines elements of nature into a chaotic yet peaceful retreat.

Commonly known as the garrison church, this Neo-Byzantine-style building was designed and built by order of Russian Tsar Alexander III in the late 19th century.
