The Curonian Spit: This narrow sand dune peninsula, which separates the Baltic Sea from the Curonian Lagoon, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Lithuania's most popular tourist destinations. The area is renowned for its dramatic scenery, with pine forests and white sand beaches stretching as far as the eye can see.

The Trakai Historical National Park: Situated on three islands in Lake Galvė, this park is home to some of Lithuania's most beautiful architecture. The 14th century Trakai Castle is one of the highlights, as is the 18th century Presidential Palace.
