  • Name of Shop: Street market in Pilies St

    Pilies St is lined with market stalls of vendors selling all kinds of goods. It's right in the centre of the Old Town with numerous restaurants and hotels so the sellers count on tourists as their clientele. Artists display their paintings, craftsmen local crafts. The atmosphere is very pleasant and you can find some unique souvenirs like a wooden bear at his (also wooden) computer.

    What To Buy: Amber jewelry, paintings, linen, embroidered tablecloths, original children's toys made of wood, Russian 'babushkas' and many more local crafts.

    What To Pay: The prices are lower than in the shops. Amber jewelry is cheaper than in Poland.

     This town looks like a great place with much history, and in spite of its wars/tragedies, it still is a proud part of the country. You did an excellent job of presenting the information

     Vilnius certainly has lots of wonderful tourist attractions such as the charm and elegance of the castle and palace, the lovely churches and cathedral, interesting squares, gates and synagogue. ~ho & pang
