Later on, the country has been stuck\u00a0 under the iron curtain being occupied by the Soviet Union. The period has left the landscape full\u00a0 of dystopic soviet architecture, eerie neighbourhoods and Chernobyl-like abandoned factories (in\u00a0 some of them the festival is going to take place too).<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_103898\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-103898\" style=\"width: 2560px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-103898 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/kaunas2022.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Vytenis-Sidabras-2-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1709\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kaunas2022.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Vytenis-Sidabras-2-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/kaunas2022.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Vytenis-Sidabras-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kaunas2022.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Vytenis-Sidabras-2-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/kaunas2022.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Vytenis-Sidabras-2-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/kaunas2022.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Vytenis-Sidabras-2-391x260.jpg 391w, https:\/\/kaunas2022.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Vytenis-Sidabras-2-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/kaunas2022.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Vytenis-Sidabras-2-2048x1367.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-103898\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo by: Vytenis Sidabras<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The best way to get to Kaunas is by taking a plane to Kaunas Airport (KUN) or nearby Vilnius\u00a0 Airport (VNO).
