Lithuania is the southernmost of the three ex Soviet Republics on the Baltic. Lithuania has a long history behind itself as a proud kingdom and once stretched to the Black See, some 2000 kilometers further to the south.
Since then the country has shrunk a lot. But what's left is certainly worth exploring. A good starting point is Vilnius, the Jerusalem of Europe as it was called at the turn of the century. Other places of interest include the cities of Kaunas and Klaipeda.
