Riga from Above: A Stunning 360-Degree Cityscape

#cityscape #100waysoftravel #latvia #riga #stpeter On a hot summer afternoon, I visited the St. Peter's Church viewing platform to enjoy the 360-degree panoramic cityscape of Riga. Though it’s not free—adults pay 9 euros—the experience is worth every cent, offering the best view of the city. From the North-West side, the colorful, boxy buildings seem to be scattered haphazardly along the river Daugava, creating a unique urban landscape. Looking South, Riga Central Market and the TV tower dominate the skyline, while to the East, the Freedom Monument and the striking Nativity Cathedral come into view, showcasing the city’s blend of history and modernity from every angle.

Old City Riga (Vecriga)

Our summer time in Riga, Latvia Riga is the capital city of Latvia and has one of the best medieval architecture in the world. The entire city has approximately 700.000 people, it's quiet and best for holiday getaway. The old buildings located in old town have unique charme makes you take off your camera and snap them. Latvians are kind people and very welcoming. You don't have to know their language in order to move around because most of their young people know how to speak English and they are always willing to help if you ask. #riga #latvia #medieval #summervacationtravel #summer #coupletrip #awesomepic #deliciousfood #mynovgetaway
