This guidebook is meant to offer practical advice and information.  Please bring it along with you when travelling.  We have written the book for people who like to observe wild nature, learn about various cultural and historical monuments, or be active tourists who will visit national parks on foot, on a bicycle, by boat or on skis.  We have not forgotten about those of you who want to drive a car, either.  The guidebook offers information about the most important environmental, cultural and historical values of Latvia’s four national parks, also listing the most interesting tourist destinations.  Maps are included, and GPS co-ordinates are offered for the most interesting objects so as to make it easier for you to find your way around the parks.

We have noticed that Japanese guests find Latvian rural tourism attractive. Our nature, wide landscapes, authentic homesteads, live traditions, mushrooming, autumn colours are just few of the things that fascinate travellers from Japan. Therefore, we have created an attractive promotional brochure in Japanese language.

The brochure will be distributed in the Latvian stand in the largest travel fair JATA Travel Showcase in Tokyo, September 29 – October 2 (the fair attracts the audience of 100 000 tourism professionals and general public) http://www.jata-jts.jp/contents/index/en/ .
