I admire Curonian Spit, perhaps one of the most amazing and impressive natural beauties of Lithuania, and the effort to protect it. This area, also called the Sahara of the Baltic Sea and included in the UNESCO World Heritage List, consists of about 90 km long narrow saber-shaped dunes that divide the Curonian Lagoon from the Baltic Sea. Curonian Spit and its surroundings is a national park that is very well protected by the state. In this national park created with pine trees that people have planted with their hands for years, they have carefully lived more than 30 species of endangered birds and more than 800 different plants. I can say that I have never seen such a good visuality anywhere else in the world. The charming town of Nida and the small "Ethnographic Homestead of Fisherman" named fishing house museum, "Gintaro Galerija Muziejus" named amber museum and "the Horizontal Granite Sundial" are also worth visiting in Curonian Spit.

It is one of the best beaches in Kaliningrad Region. The access to the water is flat and also suitable for families with children. There is white clean sand. The promenade with several cafes is beautiful and also worth for walk, when not going swimming. You have direct access to the beach.

Wonderful organ concert. Really worth a visit. The so called "Kant museum" which is located in the Cathedral - is not so impressive, very few exhibits, practically empty halls. To my opinion waste of money and time.
