Par Daugavpils dibināšanas gadu uzskata 1275. g.. Tas ir laiks, kad Livonijas ordeņa mestrs Ernests fon Ratceburgs Naujenes pilskalnā uzcēla Dinaburgas pili. Tā vairākkārt cieta lietuviešu un krievu iebrukumos, līdz 1577. g. pili nopostīja krievu karaspēks Ivana Bargā vadībā. Pēc šī notikuma Dinaburgu atjaunoja 17 km tālāk upes labajā krastā, kur tagad atrodas Daugavpils pilsēta. Laikā no 1810.-1833. g. tika uzbūvēts jauns cietoksnis. 1826. g. uzsāka tagadējā vēsturiskā centra apbūvi. 1. pasaules kara gados nozīmīgākos rūpniecības uzņēmumus kopā ar strādniekiem evakuēja uz Krieviju. Pirmās Latvijas Republikas laikā uzplauka Daugavpils kultūras dzīve. Lielākā pilsētas daļa tika nopostīta 2. Pasaules kara laikā - 1944. g. jūlijā. Mūsdienās Daugavpils ir otra lielākā Latvijas pilsēta un nozīmīgs Latgales vēsturiskā novada ekonomiskais centrs. Nesen uzsākta arī Eiropas mērogā unikālā Daugavpils cietokšņa atjaunošana.

Maršruts, kura veikšanai nav nepieciešama īpaša sagatavotība, ja to īsteno vasarā. Abava ir upe ar iespaidīgāko senleju Kurzemē. Tā ir un paliek Kurzemes „klasika”. Abavā ir vairākas izteiktas straujteces, parasti vietās, kur tās gultnē un krastos parādās nelieli dolomītiežu atsegumi. Posmā starp Veģiem un Rendu upes kritums samazinās un tā kļūst „mierīgāka”. Abava no Kandavas līdz Sabilei ir viena no retajām Latvijas upēm, kuras krastos ir pieejams ļoti daudzveidīgs ar tūrismu saistītu pakalpojumu klāsts. Pirms kāpj laivās, vismaz dažas stundas ir vērts veltīt Kandavas apskatei.

Viena no slepenākajām vietām kādreizējā Padomju Latvijā - bunkuri ir bijušais raķešu vadības punkts un patvertne. Bunkurus izveidoja 1950. un 1960. gadu mijā Padomju armijas vajadzībām. Par atrašanos šajā teritorijā draudēja bargs sods. Celtnes izveidošanai ar milzīgām 16- riteņu kravas automašīnām tika atvesti lieli dzelzbetona bloki. Pēc trīs bunkuru izveidošanas, papildus nostiprināšanai un nosiltināšanai tos apbēra ar granti. Celtne sastāv no 2 x 3 sekcijām, kas pievienotas vidējam gaitenim.

Blakus ēkā atradās skola, kad 1946. gadā tā daļēji bija izdegusi, tika noslēgts līgums ar Padomju armijas garnizonu par telpu īri. Tā Valkas pilsētas centrā radās militārais centrs un Valka kļuva par Padomju Savienībai svarīgu kodolbruņojuma objektu.

Objekts pieejams tikai no ārpuses!
