On the Lithuanian coast of the Baltic Sea, I visited Klaipeda and Palanga. Lying at the mouth of the Danga River, Klaipeda is a city with German roots, and its showpiece is the ubiquitous half-timbered wall. On the other hand, I was pleasantly surprised by the Palanga summer resort. This picturesque resort, once called "Baltic Sea Zakopane", enchants with its wooden buildings from the 19th century. I was most impressed by the Amber Museum, located in the Tyszkiewicz Palace, the former owners of Palanga.
