Lithuania owes much to the rich cultural currents of central Europe: it once shared an empire with neighbouring Poland that stretched from the Baltic Sea almost to the Black Sea. Since joining the EU, Lithuania is gaining reputation as a new quality meeting destination where the traditional blends with the modern. Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania, is suggested as a number one city for your incentive groups and meetings. Trips to other cities and the coast can be easily arranged from Vilnius.

Situated in the heart of Europe Vilnius is a modern bustling city with population of 570 thousand people. Vilnius' medieval Old Town is the largest in Eastern Europe and was designated a Unesco World Heritage in 1994 for being the most authentic European Old town in existence. Baroque and Gothic architecture, historical extraordinary venues, perfect infrastructure, friendly and reliable services, warm hospitality, a booming nightlife makes Vilnius an ideal place to combine work and pleasure. Although there are no mountains or great forests, the country's beauty lies in the diversity of its landscape. This is a place of rolling hills and gentle plains, of quietly flowing rivers and of lakes which reflect the blueness of the sky. The largest river, the Nemunas carries the waters to the Baltic Sea, wherein lies Lithuania's famous "amber coast".

Political centre of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania from the 13th to the end of the 18th century, Vilnius has had a profound influence on the cultural and architectural development of much of Eastern Europe. Despite invasions and partial destruction, it has preserved an impressive complex of Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque and classical buildings as well as its medieval layout and natural setting.
