Stikliu Street and Zydu Street
Formerly part of the Jewish area of the city, visitors will see plaques, signs, and statues commemorating Jewish history in Vilnius. Zydu Street is a tiny street, but was the site of the former Great Synagogue, which was destroyed during the Holocaust. The site is now a primary school.
Located near the Vilnius City Hall, Stikliu Street is now home to some great shopping. Linen Tales is a great boutique for linen and home decorations. Bamb Alyne and Alyne Leciai are two recommended stops for drinking and eating.
