The town of real art and culture with its friendly and lovely people. Definitely fell in love with Palanga though staying just for two days for the weekend. Despite being a small town, you can find quite a lot spots to see in Palanga. Seemingly the people pay great value to painting as I saw so many magnificent paintings in... More

A pleasant stroll walk from the long ocean pier jutting into the Baltic sea through a delicate forest protected from sea winds by high sand dunes covered in tall grasses, the Amber Museum is in a beautifu gracefull...

The Amber Museum is an okay place to visit although the display hasn’t changed much over the past 10 years and it really is begging for an update. On the other hands, the grounds surrounding the museum are awesome. More about that later. The amber museum is housed in an old mansion. You walk away with a pretty good appreciation... More
