I live near the village of North Pole, Alaska. It is just outside Fairbanks, Alaska. We do have a Santa Claus house and there are reindeer herds along with red and white striped poles and streetlights. Most people here prefer dogsleds and snowmachines over cars in the winter. It is fun to live here, especially in the winter.

The most popular 'Father Christmas' destination in Europe is indeed Finland or to be more precise Lapland.
But there isn't just one Christmas village as it seems to be quite an industry there. Just put in the words Christmas and Lapland into your search engine and you'll find quite a few websites.

Choose carefully, though. There has been a report on BBC News today about a Lapland-style Santa village in Dorset/England which has left a lot of visitors disappointed.

They must have been talking about Rovaniemi.
I believe this is what you are looking for:

All the links here are great to know more about village of Santa Claus. This village is open throughout the year for visitors of all ages and is located near the charming town of Rovaniemi in Finnish Lapland.
