A Secret Near Vilnius: Five Reasons to Visit Trakai<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Take a short trip from Vilnius and find a hidden a slow-living haven; a little historic town and lake resort called Trakai.
\nIt was treasured by the Dukes of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania as their capital and is still loved by locals and visitors for its astonishing nature, traditional Karaim cuisine, and amazing views of the Trakai Island Castle.
\nTake a look at our top five reasons to go out of your way and spend some time outside Vilnius.<\/p>\n

1.Trakai Island\u00a0Castle<\/strong><\/p>\n

The view of the\u00a0Trakai Castle<\/a>\u00a0on an island surrounded by the Galv\u0117 Lake\u2019s waters will take your breath away any time of the year.
\nThe unique 14th century castle was reconstructed in the 20th century. Admire it from the shore or walk the 300-metre wooden bridge and visit its history museum, often hosting mediaeval tournaments, various concerts and craft days.
\nCheck out the permanent collections of furniture, china and hunting trophies.<\/p>\n

2.Karaim cuisine and the famous kibinai<\/strong><\/p>\n

Karaims are the smallest nation of Turkic decent that presently live in Lithuania, with their largest community based in Trakai since the 14th century. Their national pastry\u00a0kibinai, made<\/em>\u00a0with minced meat, mushrooms, or vegetables, have become Trakai\u2019s main delicacy. Take a bite and you\u2019ll understand why locals love them. The best way to enjoy the experience is to get\u00a0kibinai<\/em> to go and eat them sitting down with a view of the castle. If it\u2019s too cold, Kybynlar,<\/a> Kiub\u0117t\u0117<\/a> and Senoji Kibinin\u0117 <\/a>will give you a sense of traditional atmosphere of the olden days \u2013 they make the pastry using the traditional Karaim method. For a fun afternoon, take a lesson on making kibinai and learn more about the Karaim traditions in Lithuania.<\/p>\n

3.Adventures on the lake<\/strong><\/p>\n

If the lakes are not frozen yet, jump on a boat and explore the Galv\u0117 Lake or see the other side of the Trakai Island Castle. For some team or family fun get into a paddleboat and make some waves.
\nA cruise around the lake in a yacht will give you a glimpse of its most beautiful spots. For an even more exciting adventure take a night paddleboard tour.
\nOnce the lakes are frozen, enjoy ice blockarting or ice skate right to the castle.

4.Adventures in the air<\/strong><\/p>\n

Get the best view of the castle and lake from the air. A hot air balloon<\/a> will definitely give you a whole new take on the serene scenery \u2013 green forests, an impressive lake, winding roads, and the day-to\u2013day life of the little town. If you\u2019re more adventurous, you can try paragliding over Trakai \u2013 it\u2019s great for beginners and skilled paragliders alike.
\nDon\u2019t really want to try it yourself? Watch the professionals do it at the Lithuanian Open Paragliding Accuracy Championship on 16-17 February.<\/p>\n

5.Dinner in the dark<\/strong><\/p>\n

Eating is a feast for the eyes as much as it is for the tastebuds. But what if you can\u2019t see what you\u2019re eating? When one sense is taken away, other senses become sharper. Try dining in the dark and see if you can recognise the flavours without seeing your food. The restaurant\u00a0Apvalaus Stalo Klubas<\/a>\u00a0offers a surprising experience for groups \u2013 immerse yourself into the darkness and discover new flavours. Find out more\u00a0here<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

So what are you waiting for? Don\u2019t pack your bags \u2013 just go.<\/strong><\/h4>\n
