The
exciting new recreation area, which was successfully launched in June 2013, has
just started its second season. So what's Svencelė? What holidaymakers do there? We are
interviewing the author of the idea, architect Lukas Rekevičius. "Green tourism spot idea emerged in 2009. It was the peak of the crisis, and everyone were looking for ways to save money and hence for replacements of traditional construction. Also due to the crisis the press at the time was full of info about the maritime trade containers piling up in various ports. This new economic reality gave a birth plan to Svencelė recreational area - start with the development of the green container town."
