Itinerary

They say that the shortest way to get to know a country and its people is the way to the local market. That’s why we invite you to short, yet unforgettable visit to the oldest market in Vilnius – Hales turgus! Prepare your tongue, nose and belly for a dance of the most enticing smells and flavors. Each season Hales turgus has its own face; each time it can offer you something special. But be sure that one thing never changes – everything you’ll find here is always made by locals and always made with love. You’ll visit 4 or 5 different places. Begin in the Juice Bar, which has been operating for nine years and is very popular among market visitors. Try a delicious fruit or vegetable cocktail and go straight to “Roots” where you’ll find the largest selection of Lithuanian handcrafted cheese in all country. Keep in mind, that all products are created according to authentic recipes and tastes cherished by Lithuanian farmers.

About Vilnius

Vilnius is Lithuania's capital, a baroque old town of church towers and courtyards, with a hilltop castle tower and a university founded in 1579.

Vilnius has one of the largest surviving medieval old towns in eastern Europe, a World Heritage site of cobbled lanes, courtyards and dozens of churches, most in baroque style. Gediminas Tower, the remnant of the upper castle, looks over the roofs from a hill, and the neoclassical cathedral stands in the square below. Vilnius University, founded in 1579, has a cluster of courtyards, and the Gate of Dawn holds an icon revered by Catholics and Orthodox believers.
