Several thoughts about Birštonas are recorded in the book of Žan Mockler:
"We go around the park and here we see the real Lithuania. Lithuanian wooden villas, carved pediments overlooking lawns and blooming balconies. Lithuanian huge birches, whose light foliage is mixed with the branches of proud firs; the Lithuanian and wide-spreading Nemunas, suddenly leaping to the side a hundred kilometers away, bursting through the hills, leaving a longing for the soon-to-be-disappeared beauty."
