Riga, the capital of Latvia, is located in the Baltic Coast, where the Daugava and Ridzene Rivers join, and it is the largest city among the Baltic states. It is also considered as the major center of culture, commerce and industry.
Business and holiday trips to Riga have been raised during the last years due to infrastructure development the city has experienced. As a city-port Riga is an important transportation hub, not only for the ferry connections to Stockholm, Kiel and Lübeck, but also because it has the largest airport in the Baltic region.
Once described as the little „Paris of the North” from its visitors, since 1997 has the status of UNESCO World Heritage Site, due to its collection of Art Noveau buildings, which is the richest in Europe.
To make your trip to Riga more interesting, you should visit The Doma Cathedral, which is the largest church in the Baltic states and its extraordinary organ from the XIX century, The Riga Castle, where you can find two excellent museums: The Museum of Foreign Art and the Museum of Latvian History. The St. Peter’s Church, with a 123 m high tower, and behind it a smaller church dating form the XIII century, St. John’s Church, The Powder Tower – this is the only tower remaining from the city walls that once protected the city. Inside you will find the Latvian Museum of War. The only stationary circus in the Baltic States is here, the Riga Circus. Here you will also have the chance to see the third highest tower in Europe, the Riga Radio and TV Tower.
If you like old cars, do not miss the Motormuzejs, it has a collection of old cars that includes the limousines that once transported political figures like Stalin and Brezhnev.
For those who enjoy shopping, there is the largest shopping center in the Baltic states, the Domina Shopping Centre. Also the city offers you the most vibrant nightlife by far in the Baltics.
Although Riga has developed into a modern city, it still retains part of its old-world feel. This is a city where you can feel that you have stepped back for a couple of centuries while turning a corner or entering a room. But its future looks bright, indeed.
