Finding the MYSTERIOUS People of TRAKAI, Lithuania 🇱🇹

Looking for the best things to do in Trakai, Lithuania? While most Lithuania travel vlogs focus only on the Trakai Island Castle, we went on a mission to find the mysterious Karaim people. This unique Turkic community has lived in Trakai since the 14th century, and their history and culture are disappearing. In this Lithuania travel guide, our day starts with a total disaster, a broken shoe that leads us on a frantic search for superglue! Once sorted, we explore the Karaim museum, admire the unique wooden architecture, and taste the world-famous Kibinai (Karaim pastries). If you're visiting Vilnius and planning a Trakai day trip, you cannot miss this hidden side of the Baltics. From the stunning Lakeside scenery to the Grand Duke's warriors, this is the ultimate Trakai experience.
