This trolley bus is so nostalgic it reminds me the older trolleys in Tallinn that no longer drive around. But Tallinn had blue and white ones.

This Užupis district is now on the left side of the river.

Seems like lot of red and yellow in Vilnius.

So this district is supposed to be a bohemian district with a lot of artists living and working there. The first sign of art.

Noticed they had shown Estonian movies in one of the buildings, thats cool.
Viimne reliikvia, 02, Nipernaadi, Fred Jüssi. Olemise ilu. I have actually seen all of those movies before already.

This seemed like a centre of this district with a small square that had Christmas tree and Angle statue.

A cannabis store, well looks nice and yellow but didn't go in. Damn Free hemp tea, now I noticed it.

Big metal Cat statue. Why so grumpy? According to an old Užupis legend, this cat helps people overcome their fears.

Created by artist Jonas Geltis, on the initiative of jeweller Viktorija Orkinė...

A wall full of small pictures and text etc. A street for literature.
