Lampėdžiai Bridge
The Lampėdžiai Bridge is a road bridge crossing the Nemunas River in Kaunas. Completed in 1997, it is a key segment of the Via Baltica highway. Travelers visit this location primarily for the elevated views of the river and the surrounding landscape as they enter or leave the city.
Getting There
The bridge is located on the outskirts of the city center. It is accessible via public transport or taxi. Depending on the mode of transport and traffic conditions, the journey from the center typically takes 10 to 20 minutes.
