五、风景名胜,景点( attractions)
1. Olavinlinna
Olavinlinna is a 15th-century three-tower castle located in Savonlinna, Finland. It is the northernmost medieval stone fortress still standing. The castle is built on an island in the Kyrönsalmi strait that connects the lakes Haukivesi and Pihlajavesi. The fortress was founded by Erik Axelsson Tott in 1475 under the name Sankt Olofsborg in an effort to profit from the political turmoil following Ivan III's conquest of the Novgorod Republic. It was sited in Savonia so as to lay claim to the Russian side of the border established by the Treaty of Nöteborg.
One of Tott's letters from 1477 includes a passing mention of foreign builders invited to Olofsborg, probably from Reval, where the city fortifications were being extended. It was the first Swedish castle provided with a set of thickset circular towers that could withstand cannon fire. It is not by accident that a network of lakes and waterways forms the setting for the castle, for these would seriously impede a prospective Russian offensive.
The three-towered keep was completed in 1485, and the construction of the outer curtain walls with two towers was initiated immediately. They were completed in 1495. The castle is roughly a truncated rhomboid with keep on the western side of the island and the curtain walls and outer bailey to east. One of the towers of the keep, St. Erik's Tower, has a bad foundation and has since collapsed. One of the towers of Bailey, the Thick Tower, exploded in the 18th century. A bastion has been built on its place. The castle was converted into a Vaubanesque fort in the late 18th century with bastions.
2. Linnansaari National Park
Linnansaari National Park is a national park in the Southern Savonia and Northern Savonia regions of Finland. It lies in the middle of the lake Haukivesi, a part of greater Saimaa. The National Park was established to conserve the valuable natural features of the Finnish lakeland. On the main island there's an old croft. Slash-and-burn agriculture is still practised on its fields to conserve the old cultural landscape and the associated plant and animal species. A large part of the island is natural-state coniferous forest, with some herb-rich parts. The critically endangered Saimaa Ringed Seal inhabits the park.
3. Kerimäki church
The Kerimäki Church in Kerimäki, Finland, is sometimes cited as the biggest wooden church in the world. However, St. George's Cathedral, Georgetown located in Guyana is taller, at 43.5 metres. The Almaty Cathedral, at 56 meters, is even taller.
4. Kolovesi National Park
Kolovesi National Park is a national park in the Etelä-Savo region of Finland. It was established in 1990 and covers 23 km². It protects e.g. the habitat of the critically endangered Saimaa Ringed Seal. Typical of the rugged scenery of Kolovesi, formed by the ice age, are craggy cliffs rising from the water. Cave paintings have been discovered in the area.
5. Lusto - The Finnish Forest Museum
Lusto is the national museum responsible for forest culture and it illustrates the interaction between man and the forest from the past to the future. It is located in Punkaharju, in the most beautiful landscape of ridges and lakes in eastern Finland.
六、历史文化
1.历史
The city was founded in 1639, based on Olavinlinna castle. The castle was founded by Erik Axelsson Tott in 1475 in an effort to protect Savonia and to control the unstable border between the Kingdom of Sweden and its Russian adversary. During the Russo-Swedish War (1741–1743), the castle was captured by Field-Marshal Peter Lacy. It was held by Russia between 1743 and 1812, when it was granted back to Finland as a part of the "Old Finland".
In 1973 the municipality of Sääminki was consolidated with Savonlinna. In the beginning of year 2009 the municipality of Savonranta and a 31.24 km2 (12.06 sq mi) land strip from Enonkoski between Savonlinna and Savonranta were consolidated with Savonlinna.
A community began to form on the island of Vääräsaari next to the castle, and in 1639 a city charter was granted by Per Brahe, founding the city of Savonlinna.
Development of the city took off in the early twentieth century with the opening of the Olavin Kylpylaitos spa and the birth of a flourishing sawmill industry. The construction of the Saimaa canal and the railway further boosted the city's development. By the start of the twentieth century, Savonlinna was the hub of water-borne traffic on the Lake Saimaa network. The city also started to industrialise in the same period.
Tourism took off after the First World War when spa enthusiasts found Savonlinna a popular destination. The railway link to St Petersburg was already up and running.
In 1973 Sääminki municipality became part of the municipality of Savonlinna. Savonranta municipality merged with Savonlinna in 2009, and Kerimäki and Punkaharju municipalities in 2013.
