In cooperation with Dundaga, Ventspils, Alsunga and Kuldiga municipalities we have developed route maps for exploring the Suiti land and the Liv coastline - brochure "The Suiti land" and booklet "The Liv coastline is inviting you!".
The Suiti land and the Liv coastline route maps are designed to enable travelers to explore the two unique ethnic cultural regions. The Suiti cultural space has been inscribed on UNESCO List of Intangible Cultural Heritage in Need of Urgent Safeguarding in 2009. While the Liv Coast - as the cultural space of this ancient nation - is on its way to being included on the National List of Intangible Cultural Heritage. With these routes it is possible to get acquainted with the traditional cuisine of both regions, colorful costumes, holiday traditions and other values that make these two regions so unique and whose traditions still permeate the everyday lives of local people.
These publications are available in Latvian, English, Russian and Estonian both printed and electronically:
The Liv coastline is inviting you!

These publications are financed within the Estonia - Latvia Programme project “Development and promotion of small ethno-cultural regions as tourism destinations”.
