Hiking
The Armitstead Monument in the park by the Latvian National Opera is one of those hidden gems that could easily be missed if you're just heading to the next attraction. The statue depicts George Armitstead, who was mayor of Riga from 1901 to 1912, and his wife - an elegant couple accompanied by a loyal dog. It's fascinating to imagine them walking through the city at the time when Armitstead was shaping Riga and turning it into a modern metropolis.
