A UNESCO world heritage site since 1994, Vilnius is one of Europe’s hidden wonders; a Baltic beauty which looks good from every angle. Nestled in the Lithuanian ‘highlands’, the architecture of the city has survived a rocky history and stands as a living monument to the country’s colourful past. Vilnius retains a feeling of discovery for visitors due to its comparative lack of tourists, despite being one of the most beautiful capitals in Europe. The folk culture also defines the experience, colouring the streets and stories of the city with its own unique shades.
During summer Vilnius comes alive with music and cultural events. If you visit during these months you are sure to find something going on, from jazz and blues concerts to a sea-themed carnival. Christopher Summer Festival runs throughout July and August, with a variety of musical treats popping up in
