What to see in Riga

Riga is a living and multi-layered capital of Latvia with a rich history dating back to the Middle Ages. The city combines the spirit of Hanseatic merchants, the elegance of Art Nouveau architecture and modern urban dynamics. The narrow streets of the Old Town are adjacent to the spacious embankments of Daugava, and each corner is filled with an atmosphere of history and everyday Latvian life.

Manufactures and facilities

Man-made sights of Riga will amaze with variety: the Dome Cathedral and St. Petersburg Cathedral. Petra, St. Peter's. Jacob and the Cathedral of Christ create a sacred appearance of the center. Riga Castle, the Powder Tower and the Town Hall Square tell of eternal change, while the Freedom Monument and Alberta Street with decorated jugend houses serve as symbols of urban identity. The central market, Livu Square, sculptures of Bremen musicians and the monument to Alfred Kalniņš complement the cultural palette of the city.

Natural attractions and places

The natural sights of Riga and the surroundings invite you to the fresh air: the majestic Daugava River and its embankments, the seaport at the mouth of the river and the legendary Daugava Valley impress with views. In the city - Petrovsky Garden (Garden of Viestura), Bastion Hill, Basteikals Park with fountains, Lido Park and the green massif Mezhaparks near Lake Kishäzers. Riga Zoo adds family leisure, and walks along the banks and squares help to see the city from different sides.
