What awaits you
Landscapes and chronicles of the Curonian Spit
First of all, we will go to the main place of attraction of the Kaliningrad region. How was the Curonian Spit formed? What is the uniqueness of this narrow strip of land between the freshwater bay and the Baltic Sea? You will learn the answers, hear the history of the dunes and admire them from the heights of Müller and Eph.
Zelenogradsk — royal and cat resort
A walk along the main street with Prussian houses and along the promenade along the sea will take us back to the heyday of Kranz, where Königsbergers were improving their health. You will see the water tower, taste the water from the queen Louise pump room and understand why Zelenogradsk bears the title of "cat capital".
Svetlogorsk, drowning in greenery
The city on the steep slopes of the Baltic coast will be remembered by elegant villas between pine trees. Winding through the narrow streets, let's talk about the historical value of this place, about the traditions and distinguished guests of the elite German resort. There will also be places of worship: the Water Tower, sculptures and the world's largest sundial.
Amber: the cleanest beach and sun stone
