Karjala is a region in Eastern Europe, located along the Russian and Finnish border. It is well known for its forests, lakes and rivers.  The area is a popular holiday destination and best known for its midsummer celebrations. 

The cuisine of Karjala features hearty stews and smoked salmon, as well as local specialties like perunamuusi, which is a mashed potato-based dish. Historically, the culture of the region was shaped by the presence of two different languages and two distinct traditions. Karjala is a great place to experience both Finland and Russia at the same time.
