Trip Report: Klaipėda, Lithuania

Arrived in Klaipėda, Lithuania yesterday; a first-time visit to this country. It was sadly grey and drizzly but the rain held-off enough to wander around looking for a place to eat dinner.

A port city on the western coast on the Baltic Sea, the city is the third largest in Lithuania and is home to an active beach resort culture in summer.

The east-west flowing Danė River bisects the city.

And although it was rainy on this Saturday evening, the south bank is home to numerous restaurants and bars, some with a club aspect later in the evening.

And it can get crowded here after 11PM.

The restaurant Katpedele is home to many traditional Lithuanian dishes.

The heavily-timbered interior was a good setting for the hearty food served here.

Many venues have music and it was here we met DJ Twin (LT) playing mostly American pop hits.
