Kalniečių parko graffiti siena
Head straight to the Kalniečių parko graffiti siena. This is a legal wall where local artists paint, so you will see fresh, evolving work rather than random tags. It is a great spot to start your day when the light is even and the area is quiet.
10:06
Walk six minutes to the nearby Siurblinė. This public art piece features three large murals on the walls of a pump house, including works by Wesley van Haughten Dazetwo and Magdalena Karol. The themes of communication and care are vividly painted here.
10:12
Continue the short six-minute walk to the Rajono inkliuzas. This courtyard art depicts a 'local marinade' with cats, crows, and memories of old cows. It is a charming, quiet corner that captures the neighborhood's history.
10:30
Take a twenty-six-minute walk to Draugystės park. This park offers a peaceful environment to sit and reflect on the street art you have just seen. It is a good place to rest your legs and enjoy the greenery.
11:00
Walk seven minutes to Žarija for a snack or light meal. This restaurant is open from 10:00, making it perfect for a mid-morning break. The menu offers a variety of dishes in a comfortable setting.
