Vilnius, Capital of Lithuania.

Best places to visit in Vilnius.


Vilnius, Lithuania’s capital, is known for its baroque architecture, seen especially in its medieval Old Town. But the buildings lining this district’s partially cobblestoned streets reflect diverse styles and eras, from the neoclassical Vilnius Cathedral to Gothic St. Anne's Church. The 16th-century Gate of Dawn, containing a shrine with a sacred Virgin Mary icon, once guarded an entrance to the original city.
Vilnius is in southeastern Lithuania and is the second-largest city in the Baltic states. It is the seat of Lithuania's national government and the Vilnius District Municipality. 
In 2009, Vilnius was the European Capital of Culture, together with Linz, Austria. In 2021 Vilnius was named among top-25 fDi's Global Cities of the Future – one of the most forward-thinking cities with the greatest potential in the World.  
Planning a spring holiday in Vilnius, but also want to enjoy the beauty of awaikining nature? Well you are in luck, because nearly half of Vilnius is green space - about 3 times more than Amsterdam, Berlin and Warsaw. As well Vilnius air is the cleanest among all European capital cities! To enjoy fresh air and nature to the fullest we recommend to explore local parks.

When you go to Vilnius, you will understand, that the city has a lot of churches. But St Peter and St Paul is the nicest of them all. So this is the one church you can't miss during your stay in Vilnius. The entire church is creamy white and everything is so holy and fine. We appreciated the carving, statues and everything. Just keep in mind, it's outside of the old town.
