Вилнюс
Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania, lies on the Lithuanian Lake District where the Vilnia flows into the Neris. This historic city, which played an important role in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, is known for Vilnius University, founded in 1579 by Stephen Bathory. Vilnius delights with Baroque architecture, narrow streets and landmarks such as the Gate of Dawn. The climate is temperate, with mild winters and warm summers. The best time to visit is spring and summer, when the city buzzes with cultural life.
