Pokaiņi Forest is the most mysterious place in Latvia, also called “the X-files” of Latvia.  Pokaiņi Forest even boasts the name - Latvian Stonehenge.

The stone rivers, stone piles, walls and peculiar solitary stones have given rise to fantastic explanations and contradictory assumptions. One of the viewpoints is that this place was once an ancient sacred place. Pokaiņi is viewed as a place with a very strong energetic field, which is why lots of people come to Pokaiņi in hope of recovering their health. This site is also appealing with its tranquillity, variable terrain and scenic beauty, criss-crossed with long footpaths, which connect the main attractions.
