Easter in Lithuania: Palanga's Easter Egg Alley

Easter is one of my favourite holidays. The ancient pagan springtime tradition is all about fertility and new life which is reflected in the symbols of the bunny, chicken and eggs. Easter is a fun celebration that inspires us to be creative by making colourful decorations and painting eggs. It's also a long four day holiday so it's a great time of year to get away for a long weekend.

I've often gone away for the Easter break. I've enjoyed Easter in Prague, Kiev, Krakow and Lusatia. They have such beautifully painted eggs in these places. One place I'm interested in going to perhaps next year is Palanga in Lithuania. Every year they have an Easter egg display in the street and its truly delightful.

This year's exhibition features designs from around the world.
