KLAIPĖDA Klaipėda population 188 767 Location Western Lithuania Distance from Vilnius 318 km. Getting there by bus from Riga, Liepaja, Kaliningrad, Vilnius and Kaunas by train from Vilnius and Šiauliai, by plain via Palanga International Airport. By ferry from Germany, Sweden, Denmark Lithuania s third largest city is located on the narrow strait linking the Curonian Lagoon to the Baltic Sea, and is vital to Lithuania s economy as the country s main seaport. As a gateway to a series of breathtakingly beautiful sand dunes and quaint fishing villages, Klaipėda is generally used as a launch pad rather than a final destination. From Klaipėda it s easy to reach the small fishing villages of Nida and Juodkrantė on the Curonian Spit (Kuršių Nerija), or Palanga, a summer resort town to the north. Archaeological evidence reveals that the Balts at one time densely populated the area. From the 9th century onwards, Vikings from the north perpetually raided these lands. From the XIII century, the site suffered invasions by German feudal lords and the Teutonic Order. After erecting the castle of Memelburg, they used it to control the strait between the mainland and the Curonian Spit. In some years the soon developed town of Memel (as Klaipėda was once known) was granted similar rights to the Hanseatic towns of Dortmund (1254) and Lubeck (1258). In 1923, the Lithuanian government seized control of the Klaipėda region from the French, and the region was soon recognised as a part of Lithuania. Klaipėda has developed into a modern city, with a peculiar Germanic Old Town.

Šilutė population: 21. 5 thousand inhabitants. Location: Western Lithuania. Arrival: by bus from Klaipėda, Kaunas, Vilnius, Kaliningrad. Šilutė Vilnius distance: 289 km. Šilute is located 45 km. Southeast of Klaipėda. Until 1923 it was under German rule and was called Heydekrug. Silute was formed from the three villages located halfway between Klaipėda and Tilžė (Tilsit). In the XVI century tradesmen began clustering in the area, local markets drew merchants from Klaipėda, Tilžė and Konigsberg. When Klaipėda railroad was completed in 1875, its commerce with German cities expanded considerably. After centuries of German rule Šilute was rejoined to Lithuania in 1923. It prospered as a market town. A bilingual culture and education was adopted in that period. Two Lutheran Evangelical churches and one Catholic Church respectively served religious needs. Rusnė is one of the oldest settlements founded on the Nemunas delta in the XV century. Year 1419 is marked on the weathercock on the tower of Rusnė church. Rusnė is the only Lithuanian town situated on an island. Old fishermen traditions are revived in the town, a traditional sailing boat of Rusnė fishermen has been built according to old drawings. A small church after restoration, an old post office, a typical fisherman farmstead, Uostadvaris lighthouse (1876), and the first water-lifting station (1907) can be recommended as the places for sightseeing. Ventės Cape is the farthest western point of Šilutė District. A lighthouse at the tip of the Cape has been operating for more that 100 years (1863). In 1929 professor Tadas Ivanauskas established a bird-ringing station in Ventė. The birds caught in seven traps and ringed there can later be discovered in Iran, Egypt, and even in SAR. There is a museum in Ventės Cape Ornithological Station. The village of Mingė (Minija) so called Lithuanian Venice is situated nearby Ventės cape at the Minija River. Mingė is located on both banks of the river and the only way to get to the other bank is by boat.

KRETINGA DISTRICT RURAL TOURISM ACCOMMODATION District territory: 991 km. 2 District population: 45, 800 Kretinga population: 21, 400 Location Western Lithuania Getting there by bus from Klaipėda and Palanga, by train from Vilnius and Klaipėda Distance from Vilnius 323 km. Kretinga is one of the most beautiful towns in the west of the country, and was mentioned for the first time in 1253. According the historians, Kretinga castle stood on the Ėgliškiai mound to the south of the town on the left bank of the Danė (Akmena) River. There are 20 mounds and five pagan altars in the District. Kretinga Manor dates from the XVI century. In 1874, the court Juozapas Tiškevičius bought the manor and made it his residence. He renewed the park, reconstructed the mansion and built a greenhouse with a wonderful winter garden. The winter garden today forms the major part of the Kretinga museum, as houses some 2, 000 species of exotic plants. The Kretinga District also contains some impressive examples of the XVII century architecture, including the famed Kretinga church and monastery. The churches in Kartena, Mikoliškiai, Budriai and Kalnalis are also worth mentioning.

The architectural complex of the Cathedral consists of the Cathedral itself and a churchyard fence with a gate. The construction of Sts. & Apostles Peter and Paul s Church began in 1594 on the site of a decayed wooden church. The cathedral was called The most marvelous in all land by the famous bishop Motiejus Valančius. The building was erected in the Renaissance style, with quite a few features typical of mediaeval architecture. In 1997 the church granted the status of a cathedral. There are a number of stories telling why the Cathedral built at this place, and not somewhere else. A legend has it that upon a time a huge ox wandered to Šiauliai, lay down to rest and passed away in its sleep. As the time passed, the wind covered the dead ox with dust and sand, and thus a small hill occurred. It is that hill St. Apostles Peter and Paul s Cathedral stands on today. The Sundial Square Ežero St.Šalkauskio crossing, Šiauliai An extraordinary anniversary of the city s foundation, its 750th jubilee, prompted that the date be marked in a unique and appropriate manner. A contest announced in 1981, and the winners were three architects from Šiauliai: A.Černiauskas, DistrictJurėla and A.Vyšniūnas. Sun Dial Square embodies the tree symbols related to the origins of the city, its history and name: the sun symbolizes the battle of Saulė, which was fought in the vicinity of Šiauliai, while the archer is related to the origin of the city s name. A legend tells us that the name of Šiauliai originated from the word šaulys meaning an archer. The symbols of the sun and the archer unite the third one, the time. Hourcounting digits, 12, 3 and 6, cast into the square floor. The sequence of the digits forms the figure 1236, i.e. the year when the name of Šiauliai mentioned for the first time.

Salduvė mound Salduvė park, Šiauliai Once upon a time, there was a wooden castle standing on Salduvė Mound, which destroyed during battles against the Order of Sword-Bearers. A legend tells us that the duke of Šiauliai and his beloved girl lived on the hill; however, they were not married. The god Perkūnas punished them and killed them with a flash of lightning. Their love was very sweet (saldi); that is why the hill called Salduvė.

HOTELS Firstly mentioned in 1567, Radviliškis was at one time a large administrative centre, but the effects of history have taken its toll. The dual effects of the Russian-Swedish War and plague at the beginning of XVIII century reduced the area to a mere backwater. However, since the independence of 1918, the area has seen somewhat of a revival in its earlier fortunes. Perhaps of most interest to the modern traveller are the Kleboniškių Open-Air Ethnographic Museum, Burbiškės Manor- Museum and the Šeduva windmill.
