Sopeutujat

Sopeutujat, also known as "sope" or "sopeutujat," are traditional Finnish saunas that have been an integral part of Finnish culture for centuries. These saunas are typically built outdoors and are often located in rural areas or near bodies of water. The term "sope" is derived from the Finnish word "soppa," which means "to sweat."

Sopeutujat are typically heated by burning wood or other biomass, and they are designed to reach high temperatures, often exceeding 100 degrees Celsius. The sauna is usually a small, enclosed space with a low ceiling, and it is often decorated with traditional Finnish motifs and designs. The sauna is typically used for relaxation and socializing, and it is often accompanied by a cold plunge or "kylpy" to help cool down and rejuvenate the body.
