“A small city with a big feel” accurately describes Jyväskylä, located in the lake district of Finland some 270 km north of Helsinki. It has the advantages of a small town, being comfortable, compact and safe, and at the same time it is a bustling, modern center of industry and learning. Out of the 144,473 inhabitants in the Jyväskylä region around 45,000 are students. The buildings, designed by world famous architect Alvar Aalto, add their own flavor to the cityscape.
