Lyntupy sits right on the border with Lithuania and is best known for the neo-Baroque Bishevsky Palace, completed in 1907. The estate includes a two-story manor house, distinctive red-brick outbuildings, and a landscaped park with interconnected artificial ponds. The architecture showcases the wealth and influence of the local nobility at the dawn of the 20th century. Visitors can enjoy the serene rural atmosphere and the carefully designed parkland. The village is a quiet find for travelers seeking architectural history away from the main tourist routes. Access is typically via the nearby town of Pastavy, and the good time to visit is during the late spring or summer when the grounds are in full bloom.
