Founded in 1848, the capital of North Karelia now has a population of 76,334. The Pielisjoki River, which divides the city in two, was then a waterway for the timber industry. The opening of the university and the massive influx of students in the mid-twentieth century considerably boosted the city's vitality. Joensuu may not be of major interest, but its charm lies elsewhere, perhaps in the openness and sociability of its inhabitants. The legendary hospitality of Karelians is more than just a cliché. Here, smiles come quickly. It's worth noting that the city is very close to Russia.
