Litvánia
Lithuania, on the Baltic Sea, borders Russia, Poland, Belarus and Latvia. It is a country with a rich history whose origins reach back to the 13th century. In the 15th century it was the largest state in Europe by territory. Today it is a member of the EU and NATO, with a semi-presidential democracy and a single-chamber parliament (the Seimas). Vilnius, the capital, enchants visitors with an old town listed by UNESCO. The temperate continental climate brings cold winters and warm summers, and the best time for sightseeing is spring and summer.
