There is probably an attitude in Rakvere that "snow is our friend, we don't touch him". There are many sidewalks in the city center that have never been snowed all winter and have not seen any sand or granite screens. There is now an almost half-meter uneven layer of ice. There are ice rinks around the railway station, moving between the station and the city center is dangerous even for a healthy and athletic man. How do older people or parents with children move around the city? Shameful negligence! If the argument is that these sidewalks belong to private owners, why are they not fined? And this is not the first such winter.

What a calm and peaceful place to sit and see the water fountains making extraordinary scenes of rainbows in the summers. Right in the middle surrounded by many cafes and grocery stores to buy snacks. ?

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
