Where does the jolly, white-bearded and red-suited Santa Claus live? Naturally, Santa Claus has many secret dwellings around the world, but the most well-known are the Korvatunturi fell in Savukoski and the Santa Claus' Village on the Arctic Circle, in Rovaniemi, Finland.
Korvatunturi is located in the Municipality of Savukoski, Finland. Korvatunturi (Ear Fell in English) was named after its appearance: Korvatunturi's peaks look like ears. Through these ears, Santa Claus is able to hear the whole world. It's not easy to get to Santa's home fell because it is located in the border zone of Finland and Russia, far away from settlements. Santa has chosen quite a unique place to live, don't you think?
In KorvatunturinMaa, Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus, along with their diligent elves, prepare themselves for the night before Christmas all year round. From there, Santa begins his annual journey to visit every single home in the world. Everyone from children to grandparents can come to see Santa off on his journey.
Santa Claus' Village is located on the Arctic Circle in Rovaniemi, Finland. Santa Claus' Main Post Office and Santa Claus Office are located in the village and there Santa meets his friends on a daily basis.
Santa comes to see his friends both young and old at Santa Claus Office. You can make your wish directly to Santa. Who knows, maybe you'll find out a Christmas secret or two!
Santa receives hundreds of thousands of letters from all over
the world. That's why he founded his own post office in Santa
Claus' Village. The main post office delivers all the greetings,
wishes and matters occupying people's minds to Santa. Many people
want to send their greetings through Santa Claus' Main Post Office
since their letters and cards are then stamped with Santa's unique
post-office stamp.
