Eastern European vibes#1

I have decided it is time to introduce my beautiful country Lithuania by using my photos and short description. Night photography is one of my favourites, so I am really happy to share this picture with you guys. I hope you like it.
Vytautas' the Great Church, which is located in the Old Town of Kaunas, Lithuania is one of the oldest churches in the city. Like most churches in the country, this house of worship is a condensed history lesson. The Gothic structure was built by Franciscan monks at the beginning of the 15th century with the tower added a little later. Invaders took advantage of its central location, first by the Napoleonic army who stored ammunition there before setting fire to it during their frantic flee during the winter of 1812, and then by the Russians who used it as an Orthodox church between 1845 and 1853. The interior features a beguiling mix of Gothic arches and even an electronic organ. Lithuanian political activist and writer Juozas Tumas-Vaižgantas (1869-1933) is buried here. Note the River Nemunas gauge by the side entrance, which records a water level of 2.9m on March 24, 1946.
