365 days in Vilnius: September 2020

28 Sept 2020

as I said on day 77 , Vilnius Culture Night usually takes place in the middle of June.

However, due to well known reasons, vol. 2020 took place on September 25.

My top 1 thing to see was lights performance on Sports and Concerts Palace.

you can choose to spend your weekend day on kayaking in Vilnius.

One of people that are organizing kayaking in Vilnius is vilniausbaidares.lt

And one of the rivers in Vilnius you can choose is Vokė.

As I've said in my Lithuanian blog Vokė - is a tricky river.

It is shallow, and full of stones. Our route started in Baltoji Vokė and ended in Grigiškės. it took us more than 5 hours to do 18 km.

We had to overcome one serious obstacle: the Mūrinė Vokė damn.

We had to carry our kayaks trought the street to Lentvaris.

We had a lunch between the bridge to Trakai and the Railway Bridge.

One more traditional festival which takes also place in Vilnius in September is TAUTŲ MUGĖ.

It usually lasts for 3 days. Traditional components of this festival are: the fair and performances of various nations living in Lithuania.

This year it was the 12th TAUTŲ MUGĖ.

To sum up, September in Vilnius is super rich in events.

This year AUTUMN EQUINOX festival was more modest than every year, I guess, due to well known reasons.

The script of the celebration was the motive of verpstė.

And this year performance took place on the left enbankment on the river on the side towards the Žaliasis tiltas.
