About Trakai

Set in the heart of the Trakai Historical National Park, this popular city offers unique natural beauty and medieval atmosphere.
Trakai is a historic city and lake resort in Lithuania. It lies 28km west of Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania.

Historically, communities of Karaims, Tatars, Lithuanians, Russians, Jews and Poles lived here. Trakai's main attractions include its several castles (the Island and the Peninsula castle being most recommended), and the Trakai Historical National Park.
