Find the viewing spot. The wall is in Vilijampolė. Walk 23 minutes from the spot to the mural. The artists insulated the wall specifically so the painting lasts, so you are looking at a permanent piece of street art on a grey apartment block.

Wait for the golden light. On 15 January the sun sets toward the SW. The golden light starts at 15:21 local time. This is your moment. The light will catch the mural and the surrounding architecture.
