Quoting John's thread on Lithuanian forum (http://www.miestai.net/forumas):

This weekend I had a chance for a short visit to Vilnius. Unfortunately I had very little of time, so I had to move pretty quickly :)

IMO Vilnius is one of the best cities in Europe. Wonderful architecture (old and new), city is incredibly cosy, wonderful people, beautiful landscapes surrounding Vilnius, city is also very clean . I fall in love with Vilnius since I went there 3 years ago :)

Generally Vilnius has got wonderful advertisements.
