Although rock legend Frank Zappa never visited Vilnius, we have a statue of him. Why? Because a superfan from Vilnius made it happen after seeing him live in the USA. Plan your Vilnius getaway and make sure to visit Zappa! https://walkablevilnius.com/places/frank-zappa-memorial/ #WalkableVilnius

Top Places to Travel: THE BALTICS . . . The Baltic region is the land of castles, cobblestone streets, and ancient European culture. Traveling there is like walking into the happily-ever-after at the end of a fairytale (and, again, not just because everyone looks like the beautiful princess or the dashing prince charming). The whole area is simply picturesque.
