A time machine? You won’t need one in Kaunas
The authentic spirit of Kaunas lives in every step. Mornings begin with medieval legends rising from the rivers’ confluence and leading towards the Town Hall. A quick lunch takes place in the whirlwind rhythm of the interwar Modernist capital. The afternoon is for exploring statehood and national history, while the evening brings calm in the baroque beauty of Pažaislis Monastery.

Nature and culture – the best of friends
Kaunas, known for its intense cultural calendar, balances the pace of a contemporary city with the flow of nature. World-class stars perform in the stadium nestled within the Oakwood Park and in the arena rising on the island. City celebrations unfold where the Nemunas and Neris meet, street art colours the riverbanks, and music returning to the Song Valley sounds as if the forest itself were singing along.
