One more wonderful and exciting way to appreciate the beauty of Kaunas is to make a ride on Aleksotas and Žaliakalnis funiculars. The two cable roads were built before the Second World War, so they are considered important historical sites. These funiculars will bring you to the top of the mountains, where tourists can visit special observation platforms. They feature a spectacular panoramic view. Visitors will be able to see the city in details.
Fans of shopping will be interested in visiting the Acropolis mall, which is home to more than one hundred boutiques and shops with widest choice of goods. Apart from a large selection of shops, Acropolis is the place where visitors will find a lot of prospects for interesting leisure time. The third floor of the complex is the location of several attractive restaurants and cafes. Visitors will also find popular restaurants that serve home cooking. Winter in the center is the traditional time for an ice rink. Everyone is welcome to attend it. The rink becomes the location of hockey matches between amateur teams almost every day. These matches are so interesting that they usually attract many viewers. Travelers, who are not satisfied with attractions and entertainment centers of Kaunas, are recommended to visit the nearby town of Druskininkai. One of its major attractions is a large water park. The park is annually visited by hundreds of thousands of tourists.
