Laisvės alėja

As a result, all the buildings were limited to a height of 2–3 floors, with a few exceptions such as St. Michael the Archangel's church, built in 1895.

For a long time it was the main commercial district of Kaunas.

Laisvės Alėja[1] stretches between the St. Michael the Archangel's Byzantine-style church to the Central Post Office and Tadas Ivanauskas Zoological Museum, around the Kaunas Old Town, the oldest section of Kaunas.

Stretching for 1.6 kilometres (1 mi), Laisvės Alėja is the longest pedestrian street in Eastern Europe.

The boulevard is separated into two walkways by a median strip lined with linden trees.
