Boutique Hotel Altenburg mājo vairāk nekā divus gadsimtus senā koka ēkā, kas ir viena no ievērojamākajām Talsu vecpilsētas arhitektūras pērlēm. Kādreiz gandrīz pamesta un nolaista, šī ēka piedzīvojusi rūpīgu restaurāciju, atgūstot savu šarmu un vēsturisko stāju. Viesnīcas interjers ir harmonisks līdzsvars starp wabi-sabi pieeju, rustikālu eleganci un dabiskām faktūrām — te dominē koks, akmens un lins. Katrā telpas detaļā jūtama pārdomāta izvēle un cilvēciska piesaiste. Dizaina koncepciju radījis Roalds Cinis, bet apdari papildina vietējo meistaru roku darbs: “Ciparnīcas” keramikas trauki, darināti pledi un Latvijas tējas. Viesiem piedāvāti seši divvietīgi numuri, koplietošanas virtuve un mājīgs salons, kā arī klusas lasīšanas vietas ar grāmatām un mazs vīna pagrabiņš. Boutique Hotel Altenburg atspoguļo lēnās dzīves filozofiju — tā ir vieta nesteidzīgai atpūtai, klusumam un pievēršanās sev. |

A wooden church was built by local craftsmen here between 1655 and 1658. Financed by the Plater aristocratic family, it was a miniature basilica, and this is seen as one of the oldest wooden churches in Latgale. That makes it a unique cultural and historical monument. The central altar has baroque wood carvings that were produced by masters from a local sculptural school. The side altar includes a painting of Mary Magdalene from the mid-18th century. The church was moved to its present location on the right bank of the Daugava in 1698. It has been restored several times – in 1890 and 1918. The stone wall that stretches around the church dates back to the late 17th century, and the freestanding bell tower was built in the mid-19th century. It was restored in 2002. According to various sources of information, the Indrica congregation is the oldest one in Latgale. |

Vilsandi bāka sāka darboties 1809. g. Ja uzmanīgi palūkojas uz torņa, labi redzams, ka tas ir vairākas reizes paaugstināts. Tagadējās bākas augstums ir 37 m, bet gaismas elements atrodas 40 metrus virs jūras līmeņa. Bāka ar apkārtējām ēkām ir apskatāma tikai no ārpuses. Ja pa Vilsandi arhipelāgu ceļo ar jūras laivu vai citu peldlīdzekli, tad bāka kalpo kā ļoti labs orientieris daudzo salu, līču un pussalu labirintā. No bākas redzama jūras krastā uzceltā glābšanas stacija. Pateicoties tai, Vilsandi ūdeņos izglābti 29 cilvēki, 2 suņi un 1 kaķis. Tā stāsta vietējie. |

Before its flooding, the canyon of the Daugava River between Pļaviņas and Koknese was one of the most outstanding and beautiful parts of the Baltic terrain, and Oliņkalns hill was one of the largest castle hills in Latvia. The Andrejs cliff as up to 20 metres high, and it was part of the Daugava canyon. Before the area was flooded because of the construction of the Pļaviņas hydroelectric power plant, there were rapids near the hill that made it hard for rafters to sail down the river. Today it is a small island in the reservoir of the plant (it can be seen from the side of the Rīga-Daugavpils highway (A6) opposite Stukmaņi). It is separated from the shore by 300 metres of river, under which the Dūņas valley is now resting. A small part of the ramparts of the castle hill can still be seen on the island along with the ruins of an open-air stage and a few metres of the dolomite cliff that have remained above water. It is thought that the Alene castle was on the hill in the 13th century. Latvian mountain climbers installed a memorial stone in 1998 opposite Oliņkalns hill. |
