Definitely not from Finland at all. 3:19 That is Gira waterfalls in India. 3:30 That's Barnhouse settlement in Orkney, Scotland. 4:34 That cave is in Kirkkonummi, southern Finland. Not in Åland. 5:25 Probably from Norway. At least definitely not Åland. 5:40 again footage at least 1000 kilometers away. 5:51 Not all. They can have vanity plates too. And that not "A", it's Å pronounced like "A" in English word "all". 6:53 Flamingos? What the heck? That photo is from India and flamingos don't exist in northern Europe. 7:42 Swedish, not Russian. About at 8 minutes I gave up.
While you are technically correct (I'll take your word for it), you miss the point: these are not meant to be taken as photos of the islands; they're just stock filler photos. I will bet you the producers knew they aren't photos of the Åland Islands.
Åland, like Finland was then under Russia so that Mariehamn was founded by Tsar Aleksander named the town after his wife Maria that is true. Else the whole video are full of fail and so totaly lame I gave it a tumb down
When you don't know the facts, you shouldn't invent ones. For instance the original inhabitants of Åland, i.e. Ahvenanmaa in Finnish, were not the same as contemporary Sámi people. Members of the Neolithic Comb Ceramic culture started settling the archipelago some 7000 years ago after the islands had begun to re-emerge from the Baltic Sea having been pushed down by the weight of the continental ice sheet of Weichselian glaciation. Two Neolithic cultures met on the archipelago. They were the Comb Ceramic culture and the later Pit-Comb Ware culture, which spread from the west. The word ahva belongs to the proto Finnic language spoken around the Northern end Eastern reaches of the Baltic Sea more than 2000 years ago. Both modern Finnish and Estonian languages have the word ahven for the fish Perca fluviatilis. Finnish has also the word ahava for march wind - very useful for the production of dry fish. Since the waters around Åland have been always rich in fish, it's easy to see where the name of the archipelago originates. Actually it's the Finnish name Ahvenanmaa, which derives from the word ahva. Christianity came to Åland by the year 1000 C.E. What comes to the pictures used in this video, some of them are not from Åland. For instance there are no fjells nor mountains and there's no taiga forest on Åland.
"What an absolutely beautiful place." It sure is! My second homeland. I keep wanting to go back... except when I'm there, in which case I tend to want to go back to my first homeland. A bit impractical.
So many errors in this video that it is embarrassing to watch. And please learn to pronounce the name first, it's not Aland the name is Åland, pronounced like O in Oh!
The Åland islands are very beautiful, the nature are stunning and it feels peaceful. If you never been there i recomand a visit during the warmer months of the year. You will probably fall in love just as i have done, ive been there many times and will return.

One species of poisonous snake: common European viper, length 2/3 - 1 yard, not very poisonous and also very shy. Dangerous animals: Eurasian lynx - extremeny shy, extreme hearing and eyesight, you’ll never see them. European Elk - don’t go near a female with calves!!! Fish: No sharks in the Baltic Sea. Mosquitos: YES!!!
Nope, but friends libve there - so frequent visitor. Åland flora and fauna also don”t differ very much from neighboring Sweden and Finland - except no bears or wolves.
In the Nordic countries, there are very few animals that are dangerous to humans. I haven't heard about bears in Åland, but moose kan be dangerous. There's one venomous snake. It's a viper, Vipera berus. But, very few people actually die getting bitten. Mosquitos, yes, for sure.

It was never an official currency. The daler coins were in circulation but only exists as collector's items/souvenirs. The Finnish mark was the official currency of Åland until 1st July 2002, for a time coexisting with the euro (official currency from 1st Jan. 1999 but with coins and notes in use from 1st Jan. 2002). 10:28 The prices are correspondingly higher as well. 10:44 Horrible pronunciation.

That's Strandgatan (with Bussplan, formerly Ålandsplan) in Mariehamn, just outside the library.

You spent 20 second talking about Kastlholm. You skipped mostly everything of its amazing and brutal history. Iw been more or less everwere you talk about and Kastlholm was of the most interesting Iw been att Åland. And not to forget Bomarsund Fortres wich you skiped totaly.

Seems like a great place to kayak/hike. Anyone done that?
I haven't visited Aland yet but it is known to be good for hiking indeed!
