Most dachas have electricity, telephones are few and the stove provides heat. In general, they are a special place to be in the summer. Gardening is a major activity and almost every respectable dacha has a large garden with flowers, berries, fruits and vegetables. The most fashionable areas are on Karelskiy Peninsula, on the Finland Gulf Coast. Dachas there have better facilities, more stores nearby, hotels with restaurants and better roads.
Many firms now build luxurious dachas.
