Went on wintery day. Parking is a bit tricky - need to park on other side of the road and pay. Plus not to park on bus parking. Nice view, interesting to walk and read about history. Recommended.

Turaida Castle is a recently reconstructed medieval castle in Turaida, in the Vidzeme region of Latvia, on the opposite bank of the Gauja River from Sigulda. It's an amazing experience visiting the castle in autumn. With changing colors, falling leaves, slight cold air, and the breathtaking view from the top of the castle take you to another level. Must visit spot in Latvia ??

Very interesting and full of history. Ticket costs 6 euros, you can pay for the parking at the ticket office. And take at least half a day to see all the places, because that place is large. Theres is a lot of sights to see and walking up and down the stairs all day grows your leg muscles a bunch. I think its best to visit during the summer months, more things to see and you can also enjoy the beautiful, big garden.

No doubt one of the highlights of Latvia. The tower is likely the most important tihing to visit there as it gives you beautiful view over surroundings. Easy parking nearby with possibility to pay by app or at ticket office.
