Overview
Opened in 1998, SantaPark is an underground theme park built inside a cave, themed as Santa's secret workshop. Features include the gingerbread bakery, Elf School, Ice Gallery, Santa Post Office, and a cinema — and you can meet Santa here (separate from Santa Claus Village). A magic train ride explores the cave, and Sami-costumed staff add to the atmosphere. Many families combine it with Santa Claus Village nearby. Admission about EUR 39 (varies by season). Bus 8 from city center, about 25 minutes.
