O znamenitosti

Hitre informacije: Več kot 300 prodajalcev napolnjuje to živahno tržnico, kjer ponujajo sveže pridelke, domače sire in prekajeno meso iz okoliškega podeželja. Domorodci prihajajo sem že od zgodnjih sedemdesetih let, da bi se založili z vsem, od vrtne zelenjave do ročno valjanega rženega kruha.

Poudarki: Pojdite v spodnje nadstropje v mesni in mlečni oddelek, kjer ducat prodajalcev prodaja skuto, imenovano varškė, še toplo in zavito v krpo, naravnost s kmetije. Slan, oster vonj po fermentiranih kumaricah in sodih s kislim zeljem te udari, še preden stopiš na stopnice v klet.

Notranji nasveti

Bring your own reusable bag, vendors rarely provide plastic bags and you'll likely buy more than expected.
Skip the upstairs cafes and grab a coffee from the kiosk near the main entrance for a fraction of the price.
Look for the women selling wild mushrooms and berries in season, they source directly from forests in eastern Lithuania.
Visit the fish counter in the basement around 11 a.m. when the day's catch is freshly displayed.
