Here you can buy everything from real fur and furniture, to fruit and vegetables and Lithuanian specialties.

You can live very well for little money in Vilnius, and if you and your friends want to live like royalty, we recommend booking a few nights at the Kempinski Hotel Cathedral Square.

The hotel's fantastic location in the heart of the old town, and world-class service, create the perfect setting for an unforgettable trip. If you want to spend more money on experiences, food and shopping and save a little on overnight stays, you should stay at Hotel PACAI instead.
