Finland’s coastline is fragmented, as are the thousand’s of Finnish lakes. The huge number of capes, bays and islands means that building a road from one place to another isn’t always that easy in Finland. But although building the bridges over waterways is a time consuming and an expensive project, it also has advantages. Thanks to the many bridges taking a road trip in Finland is much more fun when there are beautiful bridges to cross. And there are also some big ones in Finland.
