context_page_description: Lahti is a city and municipality in Finland. It is the capital of the region of Päijänne Tavastia and its growing region is one of the main economic hubs of Finland. Lahti is situated on a bay at the southern end of lake Vesijärvi about 100 kilometres north-east of the capital Helsinki. It is also situated at the intersection of Highway 4 and Highway 12, which are the most significant main roads of Lahti.
  In English, the Finnish word Lahti literally means bay. Lahti is also dubbed the "Chicago of Finland" due to the premise of both cities, when they were known as "slaughterhouse cities". Also, the troubled history of both cities in the field of crime has been seen as one of the similarities.
  The coat of arms of the city depicts a train wheel surrounded by flames.
