10 www.vilnius-tourism.ltVilnius � beauty, mystery and magic

Czesùaw Miùosz, the Noble Prize-winningPolish author, once said of Vilnius: �Narrowcobblestone streets and an orgy of Baroque:almost like a Jesuit city somewhere in themiddle of Latin America.�Vilnius is unique for being both the northern-most Baroque city in the world and for hav-ing one of the largest historic centres in East-ern Europe. It was rightfully declared aUNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994 whichenabled a much-needed programme ofrenovation to take place so that the city couldbe fully restored to its former glory.It is little wonder that Vilnius has becomesuch a popular tourist destination in recentyears for the simple reason that few peoplecan resist its magical charms. Large enoughto explore for weeks on end, but smallenough not to get permanently lost in, Vilniusis an architectural dream come true, a citysoaked in atmosphere, and alive with history.Vilnius�s skyline is an elegant timeline of ga-bles and spires, domes and belfries. Its mazycobblestone streets and alleyways containcountless hidden, picturesque courtyardswhose residents surely count their blessingsevery day as they gaze out of their windows.But despite its reputation as a Baroque city,Vilnius is rich in other architectural forms.There are some stunning examples of clas-sicism, eclecticism, brick gothic and artnouveau in the city centre, especially alongthe showcase Gedimino Avenue. The cityabounds with quirky architectural flourishes,from mysterious masks to mischievous gar-goyles. Quite simply, you just can�t take youreyes off the place!Most of the buildings in Vilnius date from theperiods immediately after the great fires of1610, 1737, 1748 and 1749, when the city�swooden buildings were done away with.Amazingly, however, the Old Town�s streetstructure is virtually unchanged since medi-eval times.The best way to see Vilnius is on foot (justfollow the cobblestone road). But the city is

Southern architectureunder the Northern Sky

also a dream for cyclists with clearly-markedcycle lanes covering virtually the entire citycentre, and bringing all the city�s sights withineasy reach.There is, of course, much more to Vilnius thanthe Old Town. The city centre is filled withbeautiful parks, and majestic buildings stand-ing proudly atop steep, hilly streets. It�s alsoa delight to walk along the banks of the riverNeris as it serenely snakes its way throughthe city centre. The riverside path offersspectacular views of the Old Town on oneside, and the imposing skyscrapers of theNew District on the other.No visit to Vilnius is complete without a visitto the self-declared Republic of Uþupis, justacross the sparkling river Vilnia, and behindthe spectacular red Gothic façade of St.Anne�s Church. Just be sure not to miss theprominently displayed constitution (it�s inLithuanian, French and English) which states,among other things, that: �Every dog has theright to be a dog.�Other places of special interest includeVilnius University, the Hill of Three Crosses,the Gates of Dawn, the Presidential Palace,the Town Hall, Ponar Memorial, Kalvariijømarket, not to mention countless other mu-seums, galleries, churches and statues. Justone thing is certain when it comes to Vilnius:one visit is never enough.

Did you know that...?�Airplanes have been known to zoom un-der bridges in Vilnius. The world-famouspilot Jurgis Kairys made history when heflew upside down under a bridge. On an-other occasion, he audaciously flew un-der 10 bridges in a row.

�.The French National Institute of Geog-raphy has established that the geographi-cal centre of Europe is 24km from Vilnius.The European Park of Sculptures (19kmfrom Vilnius) is filled with interesting sculp-tures by a range of international artists re-flecting on the area�s special significance.

�.A monument to the famous Americansinger, guitarist and composer FrankZappa was erected in 1995 � the first onein the world. Many a devoted Zappa fanhas visited Vilnius solely for this reason. Acopy of the monument was given as apresent to Zappa�s hometown of Balti-more.

�During the Soviet occupation peoplewere tortured in the underground cham-bers of the KGB�s headquarters. Formerinmates now act as guides and take visi-tors on a moving and unforgettable tourto reveal a tragic part of Vilnius� history.

�Standing 165 metres tall, the TV Towerhas the highest restaurant in Vilnius. En-joy the amazing panoramic views over anice lunch or dinner. Or try a bungee jumpfrom the dizzy height of 280 metres. TheTV Tower is lit up for New Year�s Eve, mak-ing it one of the tallest �Christmas trees�in Europe.

�Uþupis, sometimes known as the Mont-martre of Vilnius, is one of the oldest andmost authentic parts of the city.

�Vilnius University, the oldest university inEastern Europe, was founded in 1579 andhas served as a centre of academic ex-cellence ever since.

Russian, Polish, English and many other Eu-ropean languages on the street and in barsand restaurants. Yet, as with its architecture,Vilnius enjoys an amazing degree of harmonyin both its cultural and social life.Thanks to the city�s history, the peopleof Vilnius have inherited a tolerant andlaidback attitude. They like a good time,which is why the Old Town is always alivewith the sound of music, laughter and ani-mated conversation.It�s this harmonious combination of old andnew, tradition and modernity, which makesVilnius such a remarkable place.Vilnius feels like a small town because itsstreets are so beautifully spread out, but it isalso a modern metropolis. The main shop-ping and business districts offer free Wi-Fiaccess so don�t be surprised to see some-one checking their email in the shadow of a17th-century building. A Lithuanian taxi com-pany was the first in Europe to install multi-media consoles in its cars, so you can evensurf the web on your way from the airport tothe hotel. As you see, Vilnius comes with allpossible mod cons.There is no shortage of things to do inVilnius. From massive shopping centres tocharming little boutiques, there is somethingfor even the most insatiable shopoholic.

If sports is more yourthing, however, you could take a jet flight, gocanoeing or even take a hot air balloon rideover the city.From exploring the hidden courtyards ofthe Old Town, to dining in one of the city�snumerous top-class restaurants, your onlyproblem will be how to fit so much intoyour time.

22 www.vilnius-tourism.ltVilnius � beauty, mystery and magic

A hundred years ago it was said that nomatter where you looked in Vilnius, you couldalways see at least four churches. Thankfully,things haven�t changed.The skyline is a breathtaking spectrum ofspires, domes and crosses and no trip toVilnius would be complete without a visit tosome of the city�s many extraordinarychurches.The most famous church is the centrally lo-cated Cathedra Basillica. Originally built onthe site of a pagan temple in the 13th cen-tury, the structure dates in its current formto the late 18th century and is a stunning ex-ample of classical architecture.St. Anne�s, which dates back to the 16th cen-tury, is one of Vilnius� best-loved churches.It�s a superb example of Gothic architecturewhich used thirty three different types of brickin its construction. According to legend, Na-poleon Bonaparte was so smitten by thebeauty of the building that he vowed to take

it to Paris in the palm of his hand.The most spectacular church interior, how-ever, surely belongs to Sts. Peter and Paul.Supposedly built on the site of Milda, theLithuanian pagan goddess of love, the churchwas commissioned by Michael Casimir Pac,Grand Hetman of the Lithuanian army, in1668. The stunning vaulted ceiling and dometeems with some 2,000 beautifully craftedstucco figures representing great mythologi-cal, biblical and battle scenes.Of course, not all places of worship of Catho-lic, or Gothic, Baroque or classical in style.There is the synagogue on Pylimo St. theEvangelical Lutheran Church in the Old Town,as well as a host of beautiful Russian Ortho-dox churches, the most impressive of whichis St. Michael. This jewel of a church com-bines Baroque, Gothic and Byzantine influ-ences to spectacular effect. For those wholove churches and church architecture,Vilnius is a treasure trove of delights.

The portcity of Klaipeda is well-served by ferry,and has excellent rail and bus connec-tions with Vilnius. Distances betweenplaces are generally small in Lithuania,and it is relatively quick and straightfor-ward to travel around by car, especiallybetween major towns and cities. Theroads in Lithuania are the best in the Bal-tic States and are all toll-free. Vilnius isalso a very convenient city to get aroundthanks in part to its highly-developedpublic transport system. Most of the mainattractions are concentrated in the citycentre and are within close proximity ofnearly all the major hotels.

VILNIUSTourism Manual 2012

Art and culture has always been anintegral part of life in Vilnius. When theGrand Duke Gediminas invited mer-chants, artisans and Jews and Chris-tians alike to settle in Vilnius in 1323,he laid the foundations for the city�smulti-ethnic diversity, spirit of toler-ance and open-mindedness. Eversince then the arts have constantlyflourished and the city has a proud tra-dition of artistic excellence. Vilniusboasts numerous museums and gal-leries. Its theatres are world-famous,while its musicians and orchestras arealso internationally distinguished. Nota day goes by in Vilnius without somemajor festival, cultural event or con-cert taking place.
