Klaipeda, Lithuania

We left St. Petersburg and headed for Lithuania. It is unique because its history is much more German than Lithuanian. However there is a unique park that highlights Lithuanian folklore and fairytales that is located in a suburb of Klaipeda. It is a place for locals to celebrate Summer Solstice and All Saints Eve: Hill of Witches (Raguna Kalnus).

the park is on a peninsula

Getting to the peninsula by ferry – note the large bus getting on – we were in a similar one.

The park is filled with magical carvings:

    Fun!!!

TipWear sturdy shoes, bring insect repellent, get a printed guide from the tourist information booth to tell you about each carving.
