Gist: Nestled among great foliage, the tiny town of Savonlinna stretches on top of three islands in the middle of Lake Saimaa. Each summer, this little-known destination fills up with visitors who have an ear for classical music. Orchestras travel to play in the Olavinlinna Castle, built in the 15th century, ringing across the lake. Also, the trip there will leave you with mesmerizing views of the Finnish hinterland.
