Best Hikes to Historic Wooden Villas of Majori

Tips

  • The main town here is Majori, which can be as crowded in the summer months as it is on German coasts. Especially the Jomas iela, the promenade of the place, is then quite crowded and noisy. But on the beach it runs fast. After all, he is 34km long.
    Again, magnificent houses are old as well as new.

  • Majori is the heart of Jūrmala - a place where the flair of times gone by combines with modern life. The architecture here is particularly remarkable: Art Nouveau wooden houses, many of them lovingly restored, line the streets and tell stories of the heyday of Baltic spa culture. Strolling along Jomas iela, the lively pedestrian zone, you will find cafes, boutiques and restaurants that tempt you with a mix of traditional and modern cuisine.An absolute highlight is the former bathhouse of Emīlija Rācene on the beach - a nostalgic building that was once famous for its seawater treatments. Today it stands as a monument and reminds us of the glamorous days when Jūrmala was a popular destination for wellness travelers from all over Europe.The proximity to the beach gives Majori a relaxed atmosphere. Whether you are taking a leisurely stroll through the city or retreating to the seaside, Majori offers a unique mix of culture, history and relaxation that shapes the cityscape of Jūrmala.
