Geocache Description:


LAT : slepnis ir paslepts viena no Aluksnes parka apskates objektiem – Aleksandra paviljona. Vasara vieta ir loti iecienita un apmekleta. Pats konteineris ir koka kastite, satur viesu gramatu un zimuli. Ludzu neplesiet nost viesu gramatinu, tai tur ir jabut ;] Kastite veidota atbilstoši apskates objekta tematikai, ari slepna nosaukums saistits ar objektu. Apejieties ar konteineri saudzigi, jo kastites radišanas procesa tika ieguldits laiks un pules ;)

LAT : Aleksandra paviljons celts 19.gs. sakuma. Tas esot buvets par godu Krievijas caram Aleksandram I, kad vinš caur Vidzemi atgriezdamies Peterburga 1822.gada pabijis ari Aluksne. Tomer, iespejams, ka paviljons uzcelts ari velak tikai ši notikuma atcerei. Tautas nostastos ši celtne figure ari ka "kafijas paviljons" - baronu dzimta šeit milejusi dzert rita kafiju un istabenei bija jamero talais celš no Jaunas pils lidz Aleksandra paviljonam tik ilgi, lidz kafija atnesta vajadzigaja karstuma.

ENG : the cache is hidden in one of the objects to see in Aluksne park

The place is quite busy in summer, stealth may be required

The cache itself is wooden box, containing a logbook and a pencil. Please do not rip off the logbook as it is meant to be sticked like that. Please handle the cache with care as a great effort has been put IN THAT BOX ;]

The visual appearance of the cache is related to the historical importance of the place, also the cache name (Tea or coffee?) is chosen according to the legend or story that once upon a time barons liked to spend some time in mornings by a cup of tea or coffee in Alexander’s pavilion. It is said that this object was built in 19th century in honor to Russian czar Alexander I, who in 1822 visited Aluksne. Other sources say that the pavilion was built only after the czar’s visit. In other words – it might have been built in the memory of the significant visit.
