Curonian Spit: The unique treasure of the Baltic
This photo album is a journey to one of the most amazing corners of Russia, where nature has created a real masterpiece. The Curonian Spit is 98 kilometers of a thin sand thread between the salt waters of the Baltic Sea and the fresh waters of the Curonian Bay.
What you will see on this album:
Singing sands of dunes: majestic sandy mountains that "sing" in the wind, and snow-white beaches, on which the waves of the Baltic break.
Dancing Forest: A mysterious coniferous forest with bizarrely curved tree trunks, the origin of which is still shrouded in mystery.
The height of Eph: The highest point of the Orekhova dune, from where a breathtaking panorama of the Russian and Lithuanian parts of the spit opens.
Swan Lake: Amazing freshwater pond where you can watch graceful birds in their natural habitat.
The ancient village of Fisherman: an authentic village with traditional architecture and a special atmosphere of tranquility.
Rich animal kingdom: The pictures show moose, deer, boar and many birds, including majestic white eagles.

Incredible photo shoots: Every corner here is a ready-made postcard, from golden dunes to pines growing straight out of the sand.
