Kaliningrad is amazing. Here there are utterly Soviet areas, which bring sorrow and despondency. There are typically burgher, though a few shabby quarters, for which it is so nice to walk, remembering the past of the city. There is an unreal sea museum, and miraculously restored Fish Village, and an amazing cathedral with the tomb of the same Kant and, of course, there is a fantastic, beautiful, precious Curonian Spit, which is literally a couple of hours drive from the city center. @

Originally there was no single city: there were three completely independent settlements, and the name of Koenigsberg wore a fortress, standing separately on Prussian soil. It was she who gave the name to the united city. July 4, 1946, the Kaliningrad Region was formed, and Konigsberg was renamed Kaliningrad.

Today Kaliningrad (population of about 425 thousand people) is the largest city and the capital of the Kaliningrad region, administrative and industrial center.
