Showing Visitors Around Vilnius with Kids, 13 of 18: Amber Museum-Gallery



A small museum in a baroque Old Town house, devoted to 50-million-year-old Baltic amber. Kids can hunt for insects trapped in the resin (a mosquito, a grasshopper leg), find amber in white, green and even blue, and see a 3-kilogram piece.
Stairs lead down to a cellar with 15th-century kilns and a patch of street paved 500 years ago. Upstairs is an amber jewelry gallery and shop.
