There are over 188.000 lakes in Finland, larger than 500 square metres (5,400 sq ft). As such, Finland is also known as ‘The Land of the Thousand Lakes’. It is believed that water, or fresh water to be precise, is going to be the most important natural resource of the country in the future - if not already. This picture is taken during midsummer in Sulkava, a part of the large lakeland district.
