'''Vilnius''' is the capital of [[Lithuania]].
== Hitching In in ==
When coming from [[Kaunas]] ask the driver politely if he drives near the place of your destination. If the answer is negative, it might be more convenient to take a free bus from a huge ''hypermarket'' called "Maxima" which is situated ~13 kilometres away from Vilnius ([http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&saddr=Pirkli%C5%B3+gatv%C4%97,+Vilnius+LT-02029,+Litauen&daddr=Vilnius,+Lithuania&hl=en&geocode=&mra=ls&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=35.821085,56.601563&ie=UTF8&z=12 map]) to the city centre or to some other destinations in the city.

* '''Option 1''' A hitch-hiking spot towards Riga (as well as towards Panevėžys and Šiauliai) is situated behind the bus stop after one of the major street crossings in Pašilaičiai/Fabijoniškės at pretty much the end of the Ukmergės avenue ([http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&saddr=Vilnius,+Lithuania&daddr=54.73146,25.237141&hl=en&geocode=&mra=dme&mrcr=0&mrsp=1&sz=13&sll=54.722043,25.252075&sspn=0.051058,0.11055&ie=UTF8&z=13 map]). There are many buses going this direction ([http://vilniustransport.lt/images/mrweb_1.gif see the Vilnius public transport network]) so you won't have troubles of getting to so called Via Baltica road (E67). It is also a popular spot for locals to hitch-hike to their homes in towns nearby, so the smart thing would be to go a little bit further and to write your destination on a hard paper to show to the drivers.
