Teave
Kiired faktid: In the center of a lake with seven islands, a red brick castle rises, crossing a wooden path that seems to lead to another world. More than 200,000 visitors per year try the famous kibinai, a Lithuanian delicacy served in a small restaurant by the water.
Esiletõstmised: The castle was built on a natural island between three lakes, creating a defensive system that no enemy ever managed to breach. Its restoration in the 1950s brought to light colors and architectural details that had been covered for centuries.
Sisekujunduse nõuanded
- Wear comfortable shoes because you will walk on wooden bridges and cobblestone paths around the castle.
- In the afternoon, the sun sets behind the castle and creates the perfect backdrop for photos without flash.
- Do not limit yourself to the interior of the castle, take a boat ride around the island for a panoramic view.
- If you go on the weekend, buy the kibinai early because they run out quickly.
