As Kaunas is surrounded by small hills, it is home to two funiculars.
One of these is the Zaliakalnis Funicular (Green Hill Funicular) which was opened in 1931. It leads from Putvinskio gatve to Ausros gatve near the Church of the Resurrection. The fare of 50 Centai has to be paid to the conductor on the funicular
The other funicular is called Aleksoto funicular and leads from Veiveriu gatve on the left bank of the river Nemunas to the top of the hill from where you can enjoy panoramic views of Kaunas. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

 Inside Kaunas Post Office by HORSCHECK
Please note that the city centre is flat, whereas the near surroundings are a bit hilly.
If you are tired from walking you can still catch a local bus as there are plenty of them in Kaunas.
Bus tickets can be bought directly from the driver or are available from kiosks. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

We left Kaunas by bus to Nida on the Curonian Spit. The trip took about 4,5 hours and was 48 Litas (14,40 Euro; 2006).
The bus station (Autobusu Stotis) can be found at Vytauto gatve 24/26, which is located only 15 minutes on foot southeast of the city centre.
It is served by various bus companies from almost all bigger cities in Lithuania.
The two main bus companies are:
Eurolines:

The city is situated a bit in a distance from the main road Vilnius-Klaipeda, but it has good connections by busses. It seems the busses or mini-busses go every 15 minutes between Vilnius and Kaunas. The ticket is LTL 17 (EUR 4.8). Leave a Comment Theme: Bus
