Kouvola
From Academic Kids
Kouvola is a small town in southeastern Finland. It resides 134 kilometers northeast from the capital, Helsinki.
Kouvola's central location within Finland's borders and as a border post between the European Union and the East makes it a town full of hustle and bustle. The town originally grew up around the junction of the north-south and east-west rail tracks. It was also a major road transport junction. Kouvola still treasures and benefits from its logistically good location.
