Vilnius is a special city where the urban fabric harmoniously merges with the natural environment. It's no coincidence that one of the values mentioned in Vilnius's UNESCO nomination file is the harmonious connection between the Old Town's naturally formed relief and its urban structure. In other words, human activity and the natural environment coexist in the city. I invite you to discover and document objects of living and non-living nature in Vilnius.
These are unique trees and stones that we might often pass by without noticing. Therefore, I invite you to walk through well-known or lesser-known places in Vilnius and pay attention to these natural objects. And there will be quite a few of them (14 short stops), including where the oldest trees in the Old Town grow, the most expensively insured tree, what we know about the only tree in the Jewish Ghetto, luxurious paving, a stumbling stone, an animal fossil in a church, and other objects.
The route length is approximately 5 km (6,200 steps). Comfortable footwear is recommended. Start and end point: Monument to Duke Gediminas (Cathedral Square).
