Amber Coast
The day will begin with acquaintance with a small but very famous village of Amber. It is here that the world center of amber mining and processing was formed and tourists are hunting for it. Amber attracts the widest beach in the Kaliningrad region, well-groomed park, amber castle-museum and an incredibly beautiful kirch.
Then you will arrive in the city of Svetlogorsk, which is located on the shore of the Baltic Sea, among coniferous forests. Among the ancient architecture of the city stands out the building of the hydrotherapy clinic with a tower - the main symbol of the city, the Amber Park and the house-museum of Hermann Brecht.
