One of the most beautiful Art Nouveau houses I have ever seen.

Must see in Riga

Very nice running next to the river

Imposing opera building. There's a beautiful view of it from the small park.

Miera iela ("Peace Street") is a creative and vibrant street in Riga, lined with Art Nouveau architecture, galleries, cafés, and small shops. It's considered the center of alternative Riga, attracting artists, coffee lovers, and walkers—ideal for a relaxing stroll off the beaten track.

Kronvalda Park is a central, spacious city park in Riga with mature trees, flowerbeds, playgrounds, and an interactive fountain. It originated in the 19th century from the former Schützengarten (shooting garden) and is now a popular place for recreation, walks, and cultural encounters—located directly on the city canal.

Riga's Art Nouveau district is one of the most beautiful in Europe and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is located around Alberta Street and impresses with magnificent facades dating from around 1900. Over 800 buildings feature floral ornaments, masks, and figurines—many designed by Mikhail Eisenstein. A highlight is the Art Nouveau Museum at Alberta Street 12.

The Four Seasons Fountain in Riga's Vērmanes Garden was built in 1869 and features children's figures symbolizing the seasons. Located in the center of the park, it is a popular meeting place. The current bronze version dates from 1978. In summer, it bubbles with life, and in winter, it is dormant. The fountain is a highlight of Riga's oldest public park.
