Preiļos, blakus viesu namam „Pie Pliča” (Raiņa bulvāris) ikviens var apskatīt un ieiet Latgales un Latvijas mazākajā dievnamā – kapelā.

Die Gaststätte Raudnaela befindet sich am Rande der Autobahn Pärnu–Tartu, an der Stelle des ehemaligen Gasthauses Raudna (18. Jh.), 15 Autominuten entfernt von Viljandi. Die Gäste können das leckere hausgemachte Essen genießen, hier werden auch thematische Abendessen veranstaltet.

This is an open territory which is 3.5 km long and 2 km wide.  It is located on the left bank of the Lielupe River between the village of Pavasari and the Odiņi homestead.  The polder was established during the Soviet era to obtain farmland, and back then it was used very intensively.  Today, it is slowly becoming overgrown, and despite this, this is one of the most important locations in Europe for corn-crakes.  A gravel road crosses the polder from the North to the South, and this is an excellent place to hear the songs of the corn-crake.

Teritorijas apskates nolūkos ir izveidota un labiekārtota dabas izziņas taka. Dabas liegums atrodas Abavas senlejas dabas parka teritorijā. Taka iepazīstina ar vienīgo krūmu čužas savvaļas augšanas vietu Latvijā.

One of the highest dunes in Latvia, located between Bernāti and Jūrmalciems villages. It is 37m high and offers a magnificent view of the sea and natural pine forests. The highest dunes in Latvia stand to the South of Jūrmalciems village: the Pūsēnu hill, the Ķupu hill, the Mietragkalns or Tiesas hill, the Pāļu hill, the Garais hill, the Ātrais hill, the Lāvas hill. The Pūsēnu dune is the highest of these dunes which are all called hills by the local people. The Pūsēnu hill developed between 1785 to 1835 when shifting sand became extremely dangerous. Several homesteads were buried in sand, among them „Pūsēni”, where a forester’s family lived. The family is said to have moved to Bārta. The dune was named after the buried homestead.

Jēkabs Janševskis, a Latvian writer, wrote in his book „Nīca”: “In olden times, large pine trees were growing in the dunes on the coast of Nīca and they stood steady and firm. But i Swedish times (around 1650), the Swedes built a large kiln for charcoal and tar. Pine wood and stumps provided an excellent material for this. Once a big fire rose, and the charcoal kiln burned down as well as the whole pine forest. The remaining stumps and bare trunks in the vast burnout could not hold the storm-driven sand; it flew further and further burying not only the burned-out forest, but also the nearest fields. In wintertime, when the vast, low marshy grasslands were covered with ice, jets of sand drifted further over its surface, and soon most of the grasslands and large meadows turned into sandy heath-land and dunes.”

To reconstruct Liepāja, severely damaged during WWII, a silicate brick factory was built in the town. The main raw material was white sand and it was taken from the Bernātu forest. In the 1960-ies they started to dig off the Green Dune and the White Dune, later also the Pūsēnu hill. The excavators used to work day and night, in three shifts. The work stopped at around 1980, as there was no more sand suitable for production of brick.

A trail is set up to facilitate walking in the Pūsēnu Dune in the Bernātu Nature Park.

Eine alte Ortschaft. In den 30er Jahren des 20. Jh. gab es hier 50 Bauernhöfe, aber im Jahr 1990 nur noch zehn. In Oviši ist der Wissenschaftler livischer Herkunft; der Entomologe Kārlis Princis (1893–1978) geboren, der 1944 nach Schweden ausreiste. Oviši Leuchtturm (1814) ist der älteste immer noch funktionierende Leuchtturm in Lettland mit einer Höhe von 38 m. Von hier oben bietet sich eine herrliche Aussicht. Das Personalgebäude des Leuchtturms wurde 1905 erbaut und war einst der Bahnhof der Schmalspurbahn. Im Nebengebäude wurde das Museum des Oviši Leuchtturms eingerichtet. In der Nähe des Leuchtturms befindet sich das Kunstobjekt Austra-Baum aus Metall. Dem Kap Oviši gegnüber ist ein guter Ort zurVogelbeobachtung.

Found along Liepājas Street, which is the old road from Livonia to Prussia, the ruins are a symbol of Aizpute and are depicted on its herald and its flag.  Work on the castle began around 1248 and was done during the role of Dietrich von Grenningen, master of the Livonian Order.  It was a castella-type stone castle with a tower at one corner and wooden buildings in the courtyard.  The bishopric of Kurzeme was in Aizpute during the Middle Ages.  The castle was abandoned after the Livonian War in the latter half of the 16^th century, but it was restored in the early 17^th century, with annexes being added to it.  Part of the castle had residential flats until the 1970s.  The ruins have been preserved to a certain extent, but it is dangerous to clamber upon them, so that is forbidden.  Aizpute is one of the oldest towns in Latvia, with written information about it dating back to 1378.  100 m to the East of the ruins is a stone bridge, which is one of the newest bridges in Latvia.  The stone railings were presented by Baron Karl von Manteufel, and the bridge was installed in 1907.  The granite plaque on the railing on the north end of the bridge has the herald of the Manteufel dynasty, though it is hard to see.
