Vilnius
A wonderful little city on the Neris River with a castle on the hill, and a number of beautiful churches throughout the city.
Cathedral Square
Popular pedestrian square with a cathedral, bell tower, and Palace of the Grand Dukes
Gediminas Castle Tower
3 story tower built in the 15th century overlooking the river and the city. Right next to the tower is the Ducal Palace of the Upper Castle
St. Anne's Church
There are a number of beautiful churches in Vilnius, but this red brick church built around 1500 is my favorite. It can even be noted clearly from the castle tower.
