🏰 Trakai Island Castle – A Fairytale Fortress on Water

#northerneurope #attractive Nestled in the heart of Lake Galvė, Trakai Island Castle feels like something out of a storybook. Connected to the mainland by a wooden bridge, this red-brick Gothic fortress is one of Lithuania’s most iconic landmarks. Walking through its medieval halls, I could almost hear echoes of knights, rulers, and ancient celebrations. The views from the castle courtyard were breathtaking — shimmering blue waters all around, framed by lush green forests. It’s the perfect spot for history lovers, photographers, and anyone who enjoys peaceful lake scenery. 📍 Highlights to explore: The Castle Museum with medieval artifacts ⚔️ Wooden bridge walk with stunning views 🌉 A boat or kayak ride around Lake Galvė 🚤 Charming Trakai town with traditional Karaim cuisine 🥟 💡 Travel Tip: Visit in summer for boat tours and lively festivals, or in winter when the frozen lake creates a magical setting. #lithuania #trakai #castle #history #hiddenjewel #northerneurope

Trakai Island Castle

The old town of #trakai which is extremely popular with the residents of #lithuania and foreign guests is situated west of #vilnius between the hills, forests and lakes. This town, famous for its picturesque landscape and the legendary Trakai Castle, was a cradle of the Lithuanian statehood, an important military and political centre, headquarters of the Lithuanian Grand Dukes, and the capital of Lithuania. #trakai is also known for the Karaimes (a people speaking the Turkic language), who have lived there since the 14th century and have preserved their traditions. #unforgetabletrip #oldtown #happynewyear
