Small wonder

The self-declared republic of Uzupis is one of Eastern Europe’s more eccentric nooks. It has its own president, currency and passport stamp, yet it’s slap-bang in the heart of Vilnius, Lithuania’s capital city. It’s small, yes, but packed with quirky sights, art installations and bohemian markets – best explored with the help of an all-new walking trail and route map. Launched by the Vilnius tourist board, in the spirit of the city’s cheeky, free-thinking attitude (remember their ‘G Spot of Europe’ ad campaign?), it’s packed with fun things to see and do. vilnius-tourism.lt
