Lithuania Travel Guide

Baroque old town and the Hill of Crosses, a land of faith

🌏 Destination Overview

Lithuania is the southernmost of the three Baltic states, once a grand duchy with a vast European territory. Its capital Vilnius has one of Europe's largest Baroque old towns, with church spires and winding, charming lanes; the suburban Trakai Island Castle is built of red brick and reflected in the lake like a fairytale, and near Šiauliai the Hill of Crosses stands with hundreds of thousands of crosses, awe-inspiring and solemn; the dunes and pine forests of the Curonian Spit are listed as a World Heritage site. With profound culture and unique scenery, Lithuania is a moving finale to a Baltic journey.
