Šeškinė
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Šeškinė is a fairly new suburb located in the north of Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania, built in 1977 as a microdistrict.[1]
Šeškinė is a largely residential suburb although it is also home to the Akropolis Supermarket, one of the largest in Eastern Europe. The largest sports facilities in Lithuania, the Siemens Arena, and the Lietuvos Rytas Arena, are also located there. The only water park in Vilnius was opened on June 1, 2007 next to the Siemens Arena.
Earlier, the village of Šeškinė was located there, from which the neighborhood derives its name.
