Description

Its name is said to derive from Toro Aida, or God's Garden in Livonian. Anyway, it is generally considered one of the most romantic places in Latvia. Site of the fortress of the Livonian headman Kaupo, who was the first Livonian to be christened and travel to Rome. This was destroyed during an uprising in 1212. In 1214 Bishop Albert built a stone castle on the site. Often destroyed and rebuilt during the centuries. Major reconstructions started in 1953 and continue to this day. The central watchtower is still largely original. From it one has a wide view over the surrounding forests of the Gauja national park and the river Gauja itself
