Žirmūnai Soviet District of Vilnius | Lithuania by drone

Vilnius was expanded heavily during the Soviet occupation of Lithuania. Many similar-looking Soviet districts were built to the city's noth and west. However, Žirmūnai was the first one of them all. In this Lithuanian Drone Tour, we fly over the Vilnius's first Soviet district, telling its stories from ~1960s to these days, showing both the aging and renovated apartments and the newest additions, such a new residential-commercial area that has replaced a Russian and Soviet army base.
Lithuania Drone Tours are unique virtual tours of Lithuania, where spectacular drone footage of Lithuania’s prettiest sites and sights is accompanied by English comments explaining the background and stories of these famous Lithuanian travel destinations.
Lithuanian Drone Tours footage is by Augustinas Žemaitis, owner of the www.truelithuan... website about Lithuania.

thanks for the video, very interesting! For the record, you are mis-pronouncing the name of the country Lithuania. It is pronounced "Lith-wane-ee-ahh" NOT "Lith-ah-wane-ee-ah."
