Bite into a crisp, juicy Lithuanian apple or purchase a kilogram of handpicked, flavorful blueberries at one of Vilnius’ excellent markets. Markets and fresh produce are a way of life in Lithuania, and the best, freshest, and most inexpensive fruits and vegetables can be found in the first three markets on this list. For those looking for a discounted item or just seeking a browse through an array of goods, the final two markets on this list are for you.

Market

Located around 20 minutes outside of the city center, Gariunu Market is a massive indoor/outdoor flea market. In addition to clothes and food, this market primarily sells car parts and tires. Prices are similar to those found at stores and supermarkets. Open every day of the week except for Monday, the Gariunu Market should be visited early to get your choice of items on sale.
