Il programma nel dettaglio
Once called ”The Jerusalem of the North”, Vilnius is the kind of a city that likes to show its scars: former Jewish ghettos, Holocaust dedicated Museums, KGB torture chambers. But Vilnius is more than that: it also has one of the most authentic Old Towns in the World, as well as a 40% coverage by green spaces, cobblestone streets and period architecture that give this city its special character.
