Cēsis, Cēsu District, Latvia
Cēsis is so homely and cosy that a visit to this town seems like a holiday to a kind Latvian granny. This is a place, where genuine cordiality and real cosiness vibrates in the air; where one can laze a bit and forget everything else in the world; where each traveller is welcomed warmly and plied with the tastiest honey-covered bread slice ever.
Cēsis is truly not only one of the oldest but also one of the most
Latvian towns. Rich in picturesque landscapes and testimonies of the
past, it embodies both an intriguing sense of antiquity and modern
self-esteem.
If you wish to recover your mind from the
crowd of the city, you should take a walk through the small lanes of
Cēsis, which still maintain their layout as in medieval times. They
cross unique silent yards, with small one- or two-storey buildings with
red tile roofs on the side,
as mute but friendly witnesses with lilac bushes and roses blossoming
next to them in spring-time. The Cēsis church and the old castle-ruins with the castle park are places welcome where to let yourself think and wonder.
