Discover Lithuania

Lithuania is a rural masterpiece—its gentle green hills and dense forests are peppered with lakes and hidden castles. Vibrant cities and small villages alike have rapidly modernized while retaining their Old-World beauty as the country has come into its own post independence from the Soviet Union in 1990.

The capital city of Vilnius is a hidden gem of Europe. With stunning architectural finery and cobblestone charm around every corner, its narrow streets provide endless entertainment. The remarkably preserved Baroque Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and the city boasts everything from castles to cathedrals and abundant green spaces.

Venture outside of the urban center to find fairytale forests, pristine lakes, and the idyllic Baltic coast. The Curonian Spit is yet another UNESCO-designated area—a stunning strip of white-sand beaches that separate Lithuania from Russia.

Fuel your adventures with hearty Lithuanian staples like cepelinai, potato dumplings stuffed with cheese and meat and topped with a rich, creamy sauce. Seafood abounds along the Baltic coast, and Lithuania’s cities offer everything from casual taverns to fine dining experiences.

Country Highlights

Enjoy a private cruise to the Curonian Spit, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Discover ancient herbal and medicinal tea recipes on a visit to an organic herb farm.
Cycle to the quaint fishing village of Nida.
Enjoy a hearty Lithuanian barbecue dinner while watching the sunset.

Lithuanian Amber

44 million years in the making, amber from the Baltic Sea is among the most prized in the world—and Lithuania is a leading producer. Long believed to have healing powers, this beautiful substance is used in everything from jewelry to sculptures, furniture, and other artistic objects. Learn how local craftspeople work with it, or shop for a one-of-a-kind souvenir to bring home.

Žemaitija National Park

Samogitia (Žemaitija) is one of the ethnographic regions of Lithuania, with a proud cultural heritage dating to the pagan era. Zemaitija National Park was established to preserve the cultural and natural treasures of the area. Explore the magical landscape that is home to many of the country’s folktales and fables.

Cold-War History

Lithuania has many sites of interest for history buffs, including the Cold-War Museum, situated on the site of an old Soviet nuclear missile base. Learn about the formerly hidden site and explore a secret missile bunker while learning about the country’s fascinating history and role in global events.
