A common problem among countries that don’t see a lot of tourism is that people only really know one or two of their destinations. For Lithuania, that’s the capital Vilnius. It’s fair enough that people may have only heard of the main cities in each of the Baltic States. There’s a lot to like about Vilnius, as it’s quite a curious place to visit. P...

Its most common neighbour is Latvian, both of which are Baltic languages with Slavic influence. All of this goes to say that you may struggle to make out words unless you know Latvian or other Slavic languages....
If I were to tell you that Lithuania was once Europe’s largest country, would you believe me? Well, it’s true. During the 15th-16th centuries, the Grand Duchy of Lithuania stretched to the Black Sea. That’s just one of the interesting nuggets of history the country has. This may just be my fascination with European history, but learning about Lithu...
Like its Baltic neighbours, Lithuania is a fairly recent adopter of the Euro, joining the Eurozone in 2015. It’s another reason why visiting Lithuania is so easy, as you don’t need to worry about exchanging money if you’re already travelling around Europe. You’ll also find that Lithuania is a fairly affordable place to visit, relative to say Wester...
One of the biggest highlights of the Baltic States that doesn’t get enough attention is the wonderful nature there.

Lithuania is home to five national ...
