Zagreb is split between its upper (Gornji Grad) and lower town (Dornji Grad), but after the war it has been expanding incorporating many settlements. Its funicular is the shortest in the world: it lasts only 64 seconds!

In Zagreb you can find austro-hungarian architecture and street art even in the city center.

At the top of Gornji Grad there is St. Mark’s square with its famous church with colored roof. The tiles represent the coat of arms of Zagreb (white castle on red background) and Triune Kingdom of Croatia, Slavonia and Dalmatia.

Helsinki is probably the less popular capital in Scandinavia.

Its area is constantly growing, but without losing its complementarity with nature. A mixture of stunning landscapes, cute houses and unspoiled nature!

All these pictures were taken in Helsinki surroundings:
- Espoo (area number 2 of Helsinki),
- Suomenlinna fortress (located in several islands),
- Seurasaari island with its open museum.

Unfortunately, I could visit the capital of Lithuania only during winter! And the overall atmosphere was pretty weird in this season.

But, am I the only one to see a connection with some scenes of Fate Stay Night - Unlimited Blade Works??

From: https://www.nationalgeographic.com/travel/article/things-to-do-hill-of-crosses-religious-tourism
The exact origins of Lithuania's Kryžių Kalnas, or the Hill of Crosses, remain a mystery. Just outside the northern city of Šiauliai, thousands of metal and wooden crosses—placed here for nearly two centuries—have found a home on the growing mound of religious fervor. Dangling rosaries chime in the blowing wind and provide a rolling soundtrack for icons of saints and photographs of revered local patriots. Despite many attempts to destroy it, this unusual pilgrimage site endures as a powerful testament to devotion. […]

The tradition of carving religious icons has been handed down through generations. UNESCO recognizes cross-making as intangible cultural heritage of Lithuania, a “symbol of national and religious identity,” uniting the community in the face of adversity.
