I Made It To The Hill of Crosses in Lithuania

Cross

It was warm and sunny afternoon in September when we arrived to the Hill of Crosses. As you walk closer to the hill and start to see countless crosses, you just realize - this is very unique place.

How many crosses on this hill and how many people visited this place for the last 100 years?.....Who knowns...

Took selfie with my friends...:)...

As you walk thru, you have this strange calm feeling - like something is touching your soul...

I got little cross too.......so I can leave it there ...:)...

You look around......and you see 1 000's of crosses.

You can find some interesting things too...

Different shape and size crosses...

Franciscan Monastery at the Hill of Crosses .

Signs on the crosses in german, polish, japanese, english, spanish ......from around the World.

This cross is special. Message from Pope John Paul II is written on it.
