A 360 image of Lithuania's capital, Vilnius. Vilnius declared itself capital of a sovereign Lithuania in March 1990, but it was not until August 1991 that Moscow recognised Lithuania as an independent country. Today, Vilnius has a population of about 550,000, and it has gained a reputation as a cosmopolitan, safe and friendly city. Vilnius is Lithuania’s major economic engine, ranks among the biggest Baltic financial centres and represents its country’s wealthiest region.
