The repeatedly reconstructed World Castle combines Renaissance and Gothic styles. Each new owner sought to bring something new, corresponding to his era. Therefore, construction continued for several centuries. Works began in the 16th century. The fortress in Kaunas is one of the earliest buildings in Lithuania. Constructed in the 14th century, it was virtually destroyed by the Teutonic Order. The fortress was being restored over a long period of time. After the reconstruction, it was decided to open a tourist center in one of the towers. The magnificence of the Cathedral in Vilnius is difficult to describe.

A huge number of attractions is concentrated in the ancient city of Klaipeda. One of the most outstanding is the Memel Castle. It was built in the early Middle Ages. The place was not completely preserved, but the architects were able to recreate its original appearance. Since 2002, the castle is used for the exhibition of the Historical Museum. It is impossible not to visit the Old Town during your stay in Klaipeda. Seems that it was created according to sketches of fairy tales. Old houses with tiled roofs are half hidden by vines. Yards are full of flowers. You can easily get lost on the streets, as they are winding and tangly. The city has a lot of amazing museums, including Lithuanian Sea Museum, the Museum of Clocks, a Museum of Lithuania Minor, and a picture gallery of Pranas Domšaitis. A spectacular show with marine mammals is shown in the sea museum. Copyright www.orangesmile.com

In Lithuania, you can visit not only the ancient castles. One of the districts of Kaunas features a unique building consisting of twenty floors. It is shaped like a banknote in one thousand LTL. It was finished in the first half of the 20th century. Its construction was completed in 2008. Since then, it is one of the most prestigious office buildings in the country.

One of the most recognizable sights of Lithuania is the Curonian Spit. A thin peninsula stretches along the Baltic Sea for a hundred kilometers to the Kaliningrad region. Now, it is occupied by the National Park, which is famous for its Dancing Forest. Not far from the village of Juodkrante, there is a pine forest on a hill. Locals call it the Mountain of Witches. According to a legend, witches have arranged covenants there since ancient times. Even the main hex didn’t miss the opportunity to visit the feast. It’s believed that witches not only frightened people, but also sent hail, drought, bad weather, and also turned people into rocks. In this place, legends acquire a new sound. They cease to be fairy tales and become folk legends passed from generation to generation in each family.
