Welcome to Užupis, the 'Unrecognized Nation'!

Cross the bridge from the Old Town, and you'll find yourself in a 'different country.' Užupis Republic is a unique area where artists declared independence. Since its 'independence' declaration in 1997, this small 'republic' has been enveloped in a spirit of freedom and creativity. 🖋【Užupis Constitution】 This nation has a constitution consisting of 41 articles, displayed on walls in various languages. The content is both amusing and thought-provoking! 💡For example: - People have the right to live in water. - No one shall win. - No one shall surrender. The more you read, the more you'll chuckle, yet these quirky statements somehow linger in your heart. 📅【Independence Day = April Fools' Day】 Užupis celebrates its Independence Day on April 1st (April Fools' Day)! On this day, there's even a joke about needing a 'passport' to enter. 🤣 📍【Access】 Just a few minutes' walk from Vilnius Old Town! Cross the bridge, and you're in Užupis. The streets are filled with art, making you feel like you're in an open-air gallery. 🎨 ✨【Recommended Highlights】 - A free-spirited atmosphere unique to an artists' town. - Enjoy strolling and reading the 'constitution.' - Plenty of photo spots, perfect for a leisurely walk.
