Review:

The Araisi Lake Dwelling Site takes visitors back to 9th century Latvia. Originals and reconstructions of Latgalian dwellings from the Stone and Bronze Age can be seen. Visitors will also be able to see the Lake Castle and medieval castle ruins in the fortified settlement. Visitors can explore the prehistoric Latgalian wooden buildings that have been reconstructed according to the 151 building remains discovered during excavations. There are also nearly 4,000 artifacts, especially ancient tools and pottery, which were excavated and are now available to view in the museum park. The park is open every day of the week from April to October and then from Wednesday to Sunday the rest of the year.
