Hidden Graffiti Gem🎨

#falladventures Grigiškės, a small industrial district just 17 km west of Vilnius center, is quietly emerging as Lithuania's newest open-air street art hub. Once known mainly for its historic paper mill founded in 1923, this riverside town is transforming gray Soviet-era apartment blocks into vibrant murals celebrating local history and nature. The breakthrough project "Gatvės menas Grigiškėse" (Street Art in Grigiškės), funded by Vilnius municipality's "Kuriu Vilnių" initiative, has added massive neo-frescos since 2023. Highlights include a record-breaking 324 m² aerial map of old Grigiškės on a 9-story building and new 2024 works depicting real town stories – from the Vokė River landscapes to industrial heritage and community life. Interactive QR codes on murals turn walks into engaging games and audio-guided history tours. More pieces are planned, blending education, play, and beauty in everyday spaces. Far from Vilnius' trendy Užupis scene, Grigiškės offers authentic, community-driven art that revives a former suburb. A perfect half-day escape for mural hunters seeking Lithuania's freshest urban revival!

Penida Island

Kelingking Cliff: Bali’s Most Famous View 🌊 Spectacular Vistas at Kelingking Cliff 🌊🌞 Get ready for Nusa Penida’s showstopper - Kelingking Cliff delivers a jaw-dropping, picture-perfect coastline that looks straight out of a dream. It’s the Bali postcard everyone’s chasing, with dramatic turquoise waters crashing against sheer cliffs—unforgettable whether you’re snapping photos or just soaking it all in. ✨ Recommended Route: Brace yourself for the bumpy ride from the pier; take it slow, as short distances here seem extra long and rough! 🔥 Must-Do Experiences: Wander west along the cliff for hidden lookout spots; peer through the thickets for mesmerizing views of the cape. The main platform offers stellar shots, and paying the locals for access is totally worth it for that elevated perspective. 📸 Instaworthy Angles: Stand confidently at the edge with the vast Kelingking Beach below (hold your camera high - use a selfie stick or monopod for epic wide shots). Early day brings fewer crowds and golden light on the cliffs. Don’t miss framing the iconic “T-Rex” shaped rock formation! 🛎️ Tips & Precautions: Arrive early to beat the crowds and the intense midday sun. If you’re feeling adventurous, hike down to the beach - but be ready: it’s steep, challenging, and takes serious energy. Watch your step and keep an eye out for monkeys that might linger nearby! Reliable shoes are a must. 🌴 Local Wisdom: Explore beyond the main path—the west side sometimes reveals secret angles for the best cliff views. #indonesiatrip #falladventures #Bali #NusaPenida #KelingkingCliff #BeachViews #TravelTips
