Places to go (2): The old mill at Verkiu rumai

One more mill-turned-restaurant:

East of Jeruzales district 12 chapels along a system of paths invites you for a walk. To go there, take bus No. 26 from the city center and get out at Seminarija St. If you go down to the River Neris via a narrow path (look out for the water treatment plant), you will reach Verkiu gatve. Turn left, and you will find a very nice restaurant after around 20 minutes of walking parallel to the river. Be aware of the traffic (see last post and a future post an that issue)!

The restaurant is located next to a little creek joining the Neris. In the summer you can sit outside, during winter-time the cozy atmosphere inside will warm your frozen limbs. My favourite dish there is the home-made apple pie with ice-cream. Staff is very attentive and friendly, music is smooth and drinks tasty.

To go home, take the stairs up the hill and enjoy the view over the Neris valley. Cross the park (home of the Archbishop) and you will reach P. Baublio St., from where busses No. 35 and 36 bring you back into the city. Both busses end at Zalgirio St., so you will need to take a trolleybus or the like for the remaining kilometer to downtown.

Enjoy!
