A Panoramic Journey Above Vilnius

Gediminas Castle, perched atop a hill in Vilnius, offers stunning autumn views of the city. Access it via a short hike or take the funicular for an easy ride up. The tower provides a 360-degree panorama of Vilnius’ vibrant fall foliage, red-tiled roofs, and the meandering Neris River. Inside, explore exhibits showcasing the city’s history. Visit just before sunset for a golden view over the Old Town. It’s a must-see for history buffs and photographers, especially in the enchanting colors of autumn. Best sunsets are from the above. #travel #gediminas #castle #panoramic #vilnus #lithuania

Vilnius Old Town

One's of the #most famous #vilnius landmarks is #st.AnneChurch that starts with the alleged construction in the 14th century but the current Gothic masterpiece is believed to have been built between 1495 and 1500 to a design by the Bohemian architect Benedikt Rejt (1453-1534), most famous for designing parts of Prague Castle. Visiting in 1812, Napoleon famously noted that he wanted to take the building back to Paris on the palm of his hand #lithuania #unforgetabletrip #church #happynewyear

Vilnius Old Town

#vilnius Town Hall Square was built in 1387 when #lithuania became a Christian state and Vilnius was granted Magdeburg rights. Thus, there appeared a need for headquarters for the city authorities. As the main square of the city was located here, it was decided to build the Town Hall in the same place. #unforgetabletrip #oldtown #happynewyear
