VILNIUS TECH READS for leisure: European Neighbours’ Day
European Neighbours’ Day is an annual international event held on the last Friday in May, and in 1999, Paris hosted the initial celebration. Currently, it is celebrated in more than 30 European nations and more than 1,400 towns and cities.
It is an inclusive festival that invites everyone to get to know each other and talk. Not only do we share a residential area with our neighbours, but we also share a common history, a highway system, and cultural heritage.
In recognition of this day, the VILNIUS TECH Library offers the following travel guides to those who are planning to visit fellow neighbouring countries: | |
AA; Philip Llewellin; Ann Saunders Book of British Towns A-Z Gazetteer of British Towns. A comprehensive guide to nearly 700 cities and towns in Britain.

Perfect for the knowledge-hungry traveller or the knowledge-hungry stay-at-home.

A. Kendra Greene The Museum of Whales You Will Never See And Other Excursions to Iceland's Most Unusual Museums Iceland is home to only 330,000 people (roughly the population of Lexington, Kentucky) but more than 265 museums and public collections. They range from the intensely physical, like the Icelandic Phallological Museum, which collects the penises of every mammal known to exist in Iceland, to the vaporously metaphysical, like the Museum of Icelandic Sorcery and Witchcraft, which poses a particularly Icelandic problem: How to display what can't be seen?
