Fountain in Vērmanes Garden

Highlight • Monument

The Vērmanes dārzs in Riga has its own charm - an oasis of calm in the middle of the city hustle and bustle. Here the fountain burbles quietly, its figures look out over the water and tell you wordlessly stories from times long past. In the various corners of the park you will discover small details that make up the character of this place: artistic lanterns, well-tended flower beds and the statues that bring the attitude to life of a bygone era into the present. The park is a popular place for walks, whether you just want to clear your head or be inspired by the charm of old Riga.
