Kaunas - 2023 European Capital of Culture

#falladventures Kaunas, Lithuania's interwar capital, dazzles in November's crisp autumn with golden foliage and fewer crowds. Key sights: Wander Liberty Avenue for modernist architecture (UNESCO-listed). Explore Old Town's cobblestone streets, Kaunas Castle ruins, and vibrant street art like "Star Seeder." Ride the historic Žaliakalnis funicular for panoramic views. Visit poignant Ninth Fort Museum on WWII history. On Nov 1, join All Saints' Day candle-lighting at cemeteries—a haunting tradition. Warm up with cepelinai dumplings in cozy cafes. Bundle up for 0-5°C temps; magic in the chill!

Ready for a Baltic weekend escape? 🌞 Kaunas packs SO much history and fun into its super-walkable city center. The best part: you’ll snap pics at #KAUNAS sign (A. Jakšto g. 18, open all day, year-round), explore the imposing medieval Kaunas Castle (Pilies g. 17, open Tues-Fri 10am-6pm; Sat 10am-5pm), AND chill out with wallet-friendly drinks by sunset. Must-See Places: 1. #KAUNAS – Iconic spot for that perfect “I was here!” shot, with a view of old towers and some Western-style architecture. Pop by anytime—it’s open 24/7! 2. Kaunas Castle – Step into Lithuanian medieval legend inside the castle grounds. Go earlier in the day for fewer crowds, and don’t miss quirky exhibitions inside. Personal Insider Tips: Kaunas is delightfully compact, so ditch the car—just stroll everywhere. Medieval charm meets modern vibes as renovated cobbled streets lead you to cafés pouring the cheapest beers you’ll find in the Baltics 🍻 Finish off at sunset with a glass of Pjana Visnya, a local cherry liqueur, for that true Kaunas feel. Getting Around: Simply walk! Everything major is right in the city core, so lace up comfy shoes. Food & Drinks: Try local pub fare near the center, and definitely order Pjana Visnya with it. Prices for drinks are seriously low compared to other Euro cities. Extra Tips: Kaunas is safe, friendly, and easy on the pocket. Lithuania uses the Euro, weather can be changeable—pack a light jacket, even in summer. #KaunasAdventure #BalticWeekend #TravelLite #CheapBeer #tripdotcom
