The prince's castle in Trakai / Trokai (Lithuania)

Date of execution: 2014-07-29.

Trakai Castle, near Vilnius (Straps are spaced from the Lithuanian capital of approximately. 30 km) is one of the tourist attractions in Lithuania.
Typically trips going to Vilnius hook for this place somehow along the way.
And we hit the road to Trakai to Vilnius.
Castle raises mixed feelings. For Lithuanians, is something very important. This, after the first residence of the Grand Dukes of Lithuania, even before the Polish-Lithuanian Union: Giedymina, Witold.
At the castle impressed us something completely artificial. The buildings, that the visits are few remains of the castle, to which the tour guides all stories. Most of the castle is a twentieth-century reconstruction and – as for me – This is clearly visible. Despite the, that here and there in today's walls are embedded fragments preserved remains of medieval, a whole is impressive artificial and felt the walls of the building the atmosphere of past ages…
Despite this, it would be strange not to take the opportunity and do not do even a few commemorative panoramas. Light conditions were apparently very good, but certainly not for Canon equipment, Spoken. As sharp as the sun that day is a challenge especially for photographers panorama. The great contrasts, that prevailed on that day were the firewall not to jump to the matrix Canon, what – unfortunately – panoramas can be seen on this trip.
