Travel guide to Riga, a famous tourist city in Latvia, suitable for checking in and taking photos📸

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 Riga, Latvia is a world-famous tourist resort city. Every day, thousands of tourists come here for sightseeing and vacation. This time I will introduce a travel guide to Riga. Riga, the capital of the Republic of Latvia, is the largest city in 🇱🇻 and one of the largest cities in the Baltic region. It is known as the "beating heart of the Baltic Sea" and the "Paris of the North". Riga's Old Town is a World Heritage Site, famous for its well-preserved Baroque and Neoclassical buildings and charming medieval streets. St. Peter's Cathedral: A typical Gothic building, 123 meters high, it is the tallest building in Riga. It was originally a wooden structure, but was rebuilt into a metal structure after a fire in 1721. You can take the elevator from the 3rd floor directly to the 70-meter-high circular observation deck, which is the best place to overlook the entire city. You must go! Bremen Musicians: Behind St. Peter's Church there is a sculpture that is the same as the one in Bremen, Germany, which was given to Riga by the city of Bremen. This group of sculptures is based on the Grimm fairy tale "The Bremen Musicians", which tells the story of four cute animals: a chicken, a pig, a dog and a donkey, working together to defeat robbers.
