Riga- Charming city

My trip to Riga was fantastic, with several memorable highlights. The iconic "RIGA" sign (pic 1) by the sqaure was a great photo spot, perfectly capturing the city's vibrant energy. The majestic St. Peter's Church, with its towering spire, offers a viewing deck (5-6) that provide panoramic views of Riga’s beautiful skyline. The Latvia National Library impressed me with its modern architecture and vast collection of books (pic 7). Inside the Old Town, I went for a lunch, I tried Russian-style vodka at a local bar, experiencing its unique, smooth flavor that perfectly complemented the lively Latvian hospitality. Riga is a city of contrasts, where history and modernity blend seamlessly, making it a truly unforgettable destination. 📍Riga
