Turaida castle - Before the stone Turaida Castle was built beginning in 1214, there was a wooden castle there that had been built by the Livs. The Turaida Castle was owned by the bishop of Rīga. It remained in place until 1776, when it burned down. The initial entrance to the castle's main tower was 9 m above ground, and in 1936, a viewing platform was installed at a height of 27 metres. There is no other view in Latvia that is like the one from the Turaida Castle! Restoration work at the castle began in 1953, when the upper level of the tower was restored and a roof was installed. The castle now contains a museum exhibition related to the historical events of the surrounding area.
Pärnu town - Pärnu Is a resort seaside city (and Estonia's summer capital) with a small harbour in south-western Estonia. The city is known for its spas, shallow white sandy beach and beautiful parks. It is also a popular place for conferences, theatre performances and concerts. In 1838 the first spa was opened and nowadays Pärnu is a health resort of international stature. During the Great Northern War, the University of Tartu was relocated to Pärnu from 1699-1710. Tartu University still has a branch campus there today. Since 1996 Pärnu has been known as Estonia's Summer Capital. Beach life, dozens of festivals, cozy old town with restaurants, concerts and funfairs - Pärnu has it all.
