The Konfelāde factory offers sweets made of fruit juices and real sugar without E-substances or preservatives. The candy is made of pure juice with no water, and that ensure vivid and pure colours and a different taste. The company only uses fruit that is grown in Latvia.
The Bērziņš family grain farm, Labirinti, grows grain and rapeseed and offers informational seminars, as well as tours for children and adults. The farm has a collection of ancient farm equipment and dairy processing equipment.
The Celmi farm makes cheese from milk that is produced by its cows, and you can taste and buy the cheese.
The Rundāle Castle is Latvia's best known Baroque and Rococo building, and it is certainly the most important historical monument in the country that applies to these two styles. The castle was once the summer residence of Ernst Johann Byron (1690-1772), and it was designed by Italian architect Francesco Rastrelli. The castle currently is a museum, and the restored French Baroque garden is the largest garden of this type in the Baltic States.
