Mikkeli is a city in Eastern Finland. It is located around 230 km northeast of the capital Helsinki in the Savo region. The city center is located on Savilahti Bay, an extension of the widely ramified Saimaa lake system. One of the watersheds of the Finnish Lake District runs through the urban area. While the rivers and lakes in the eastern half of the city drain into Lake Ladoga via the Saimaa Lake and the Vuoksi River, the western part of the district belongs to the catchment area of the Kymijoki.
