    Hiking

    The Trakaide Street has beautiful wooden houses worth seeing and is one of five Old Towns of Lithuania under the protection of the state. Interesting is that the main road crosses the whole peninsula and can not enlarge because of the lakes.

    Hiking

    Each house here tells its own story, evident in the carefully preserved old wooden houses, which showcase rare architecture. The color palette of these buildings, from soft yellows to bolder colors, gives the street a vibrant atmosphere.

    The Karaite Quarter, a Jewish religious community with about 70 members who live exclusively in these characteristic yellow wooden houses, was particularly fascinating. As I wandered through the alleys, I felt the spirit of this community, which keeps its traditions and culture alive.
