This is The Hill of crosses in Lithuania. Thousands, thousands, thousand and thousands of crosses. When you see it in real, its breath taking..

 

Nice you posted it, definitely a fascinating place. :thumb_yello: I was thinking of posting some photos of my region and stuff... Maybe Curonian Spit. I'll leave Vilnius for locals. :)

So, another quite well-known place in Lithuania is the Curonian Spit. It's a National Park and protected by UNESCO.

It's a terrible thing we had a huge fire in 2006 and a big area of forest was destroyed. Ironic, now tourists are more eager to come here to see the results of this fire...

this is the only thing we're known for

 

the Auburn Cord Duesendberg Museum and Auction/Festival

The_Auburn-Cord-Duese_468418e00d9b6.jpg

the museum looks really boring, but is actually quite interesting
