There's a reason why this is one of the top sights in Vilnius. Large church with lots of little chapels off it. Not all are open, but those that are are worth seeing as long as you can avoid the never ending tourist buses that rock on up. More

The church is not far from the centre of Vilnius, but better use car or buses to reach it. There is a car parking just beside it. Although it looks rather simple from the outside, this church has the most beautiful interior of any church I have seen in Vilnius. It is worth a visit! Plan it in the afternoon. More

This church and monument are on every Vilnius photo for a reason: they're beautiful, rich in history and a must-see when visiting. Enter the church, even if there is a service (be respectful obviously), and enjoy the unique architecture. Follow your visit with a short walk (10-15 min) up the hill to see the Gediminas Tower.

Beautiful church, and it's got a really nice square outside and to the side where you can watch the world go by. And be sure to spin on the special square outside the church so you have good luck. Apparently. More

This church is worth seeing. Most professionals say it is the most valuable landmark of rococo in Vilnius and whole the country. In my opinion it is really beautiful, but the beauty of it is interior of the church. The exterior doesn't impress me much. So, if You have a chance to get inside, take it and go, You won't... More
