  • Looks like GOLD to me. - Lithuania
    Looks like GOLD to me.
    by Grazina
    In the Old Town in Vilnius. What I like about amber is the fact it's a Sacred stone to the Native American is some part of the U.S.A (JAV)
    The Lithuanian call it "the Land of Amber". In ancient times it was worth it's weight in gold.
    For both the Lithuanians as well as the Native Americans when wearing it it brings purification of mind, body, and spirit. Amber activates unconditional Love in mankind, stimulates the intellect.

    You can buy beautiful necklaces and rings or pendant, or art work made out of Amber or pictures with amber embedded or glued to the picture...whatever your pleasure is, it's there.

    I bought a nice movable cross with different color of ambers, it costed me 80 Litas ($20.00)

    It's at any Banks in Lithuania.

    The LITHUANIAN Commemorative coins.

    The coins are struck at the Mint of Lithuania so I'm pretty so $$$$...BUT worth it.

    Many vendors in Lithuania will sell carvings of masks. Some of them may or may not represent devils. As Lithuania was the last country in Europe to Christianize over from paganism, there is still a strong tie to nature in Lithuania. Hence, wood carvings of devils.

    There is a devil museum in Kaunas, and when I get around it, I will make a Kaunas page and put that on it.

    Don't pay more than 20usd for one of these things unless it's REALLY cool.

    When you see these names, know it's super market and food is there :)):
    main supermarket netwoorks:

    Maxima - Media- Minima (same network, title indicates the size of a shop, there're also Maxima Baze, Hyper Maxima, ecc.)

    Hyper Rimi - Rimi (in Vilnius)

    Iki

    If you bought a telephone number for a longer stay a charging card (Labas, Extra) you can buy in supermarkets, o kiosks of the press. Bus tickets are also in the kiosks.

    I'd suggest to search for souvenir gifts in the folk-art shop, you'll find some cute things with a good price. The same goes for amber things.

    Largest instore aquarium
    by ettenaj
    Multi purpose department store, with a huge aquarium in the centre housing 800 different fish including sharks! A superb centre piece for any age, it is quite a spectacular sight. Also there is a large choice of cafes/restuarants, and a bowling alley you could spend a full day there especially if the weather is not kind.

    Shoes, clothes, food

    I bought a fabulous pain of glove leather shoes for about £11.00

  • If you want to have a good shopping in various shops or supermarkets, it's better to go to Vilnius, Kaunas or Klaipeda then.

    Sometimes you can buy a book of stamps along side the sidewalks in the flee-market area of the old town.

    Stamps, old postcards, books new and old.

    I paid 6 Lt. for this book of stamp

    Margarita, Rasa: Lithuanian cosmetics

  • Each bigger supermarket

    I recomend you to buy Margarita hair care products - Dilgeliu sampunas (Nettle shampoo)if your hair is dark, Alaus sampunas (beer shampoo) if your hair is blond. They have also masks for hair and balsams as well. They are cheap but really good. Also I would recomend Rasa products as creams, tonics, etc... They are also Lithuanian products. You can look for them also in supermarkets, but I think Sarma and other places have these products as well.
    There are soaps in supermarkets, they are made in Lithuania and they are transparents with seeds or grases inside, you can see something natural inside of soap when you look through. These soaps are small size and packed so, that you can see what is inside before you buy it ;-)

    Shampoo, balsam for hair might cost 5 or 6 Litas each.
    Rasa cream for face - 20-30 Litas

    The best places to find souvenirs, are: Vilnius, Kaunas, Klaipeda, Nida and Palanga. It's not easy to find them in the countryside, or out of summertime.

    The tourists visiting Lithuania have to buy mainly:

    -amber decorations or amber jewellery
    -several kind of woodcrafts
    -embroidered linen tablecloths
    -bottles of Lithuanian liqueurs and other drinks.

    By the way, the linen dresses, jackets, jumpers or bags are not expensive ones. The linen tablecloths and napkins are really very nice.
