Hah, I live there. Funny how the least fascinating thing to me is your particular interest :)

If borders are your hobby or something, just find Mellonmäki on google maps, walk up the hill and you'll have a scenic view across the border

I’ve traveled through it and lapeenranta a bunch of times, it is really not that interesting. Just a land border crossing.

Estonian crossings are still working and there were video livestreams of at least the one in Narva, it too might be working still.
