Kainuu: a friendly land

Kainuu is one of the poorest areas in Finland. Life there has always been difficult due to the centuries-old devastating effects of the elements and crop failures. In difficult times, people were forced to eat bread made from a mixture of rye flour and finely ground pine bark. Modern enthusiasts of a healthy lifestyle have discovered that bread made from tree bark has valuable nutritional properties, and claim that it contains fiber that is urgently needed
by the human body, which is often absent from the usual modern diet.

At the beginning of the 19th century, the tar business became a real salvation for the region's economy. The tar produced was transported on large barges across the huge Oulu Lake to the city of the same name, where it was sold to local merchants or exchanged for rye flour. The entire population of Kainuu was fed by this occupation, but it required enormous labor costs and often could not do without blood,
sweat and tears. The process of turning pine trees into tar often took as long as three years. When tar ceased to be in demand, Kainuu's economy declined again. This continued until a large-scale reconstruction began in the neighborhood of Kainuu, in the Russian city of Kostomuksha, which provided local men with jobs and led to a temporary revival of the local economy. Currently, the Russian economy is in a state of crisis, and now it is the turn of the people of Kainuu to help the residents of Kostomuksha with food and clothing. Russia shares a 260-kilometer border with Kainuu. On the other side of the border, there is a delightful landscape with magnificent nature.

Here, local Finnish travel companies organize wonderful holidays for lovers of fishing, hunting and cultural
attractions.
