8. Pashmina or cashmere

Known to be as “the land of cashmere,” Nepal is nestled in one of the highest regions of the world. Cashmere is the best fabric to protect the locals from the cold weather. It is a highly delicate and the softest fiber, which is made from mountain goats of Himalayas. If you want an authentic and high-quality cashmere, Nepal is the best place to get one.

4. First world reference to Lithuania was in March 9, 1009 referred as Litua in the Annals of the Quedlinburg monastery. They appeared after separating from Litvans to form a unique individuality in the VII century.

5. Preferred location for film shooting.

Lithuania is fast becoming a popular movie set for big budget films.

Lithuania is also a logical choice when covering the theme of the World Wars. During both of these epic conflicts, it was often stuck between conquering giants on both sides. Even now, visitors to Vilnius or Kaunas can see how things looked back then, with many pre- and post-war buildings still in a largely untouched condition, not to mention entire districts of these cities. But scenery isn’t the only material necessary to create a stage. Since a tax incentive scheme was introduced six years ago, the value of investment due to filming foreign productions here has grown from several hundred thousand euros per year to tens of millions.

8. National Scent 

And no, we are not referring to the smell of the local cuisine or local people

The scent goes by the name of “The Scent of Lithuania” and it was created to represent the essence of this beautiful country. This was developed by Galimard and features a blend of aromas that are all significant to Lithuania.

These include the fragrances of wildflowers, raspberry, ginger, and more, with notes of other bases such as sandalwood and musk. It is meant to capture the nation’s pride and history all through the sense of smell. It is the first scent dedicated to a country.


Minchane, I had no idea the legend of Jurate is of Lithuanian origin. I heard this legend before. It's beautiful, but it's heartbreaking.
