The tower, a long-standing symbol of Vilnius, is located on the 48-metre-high hill. It is named after the city’s founder, Gediminas, the Grand Duke of Lithuania. This is the only remaining part of the Upper Castle, which stood here from the 10th until the late 14th century. There is an observation deck on the top of the tower, a great place to appreciate a magnificent panorama. Gediminas Tower can be reached by foot or a funicular.

Be sure to snap a selfie with Alexander III of Macedonia on a rearing horse. This is a modern statue of one of the most famous and influential Ancient Greeks mounted on Bucephalus, his famous horse, overlooking the Thermaic Gulf at Thessaloniki. The statue stands by the sea at the YMCA park, very close the White Tower.

Discovery Green is Houston’s go-to urban park for outdoor fun, events, and community gatherings. Located in the heart of downtown, it features open lawns, a lake for kayaking, public art installations, and a playground for kids. Throughout the year, the park hosts everything from live concerts and fitness classes to outdoor movie nights and seasonal ice skating. With on-site restaurants and plenty of spots to relax, it’s a great place to take a break from the city buzz. If you're looking for more green spaces, Hermann Park and Sam Houston Park offer a mix of history and nature downtown, while the sprawling Memorial Park sits just west of the city center.
