Good reasons why to visit Riga!

Old Riga on the UNESCO World Heritage List! 

Amazingly, for a city which survived two world wars, the formerly walled section of the Latvian capital, which is known as "Old Riga", has preserved a glorious range of old, older and very old buildings.  From the magnificence of the Riga Dome Cathedral and the fantastic Gothic facade of St. Peter's Church, to the oldest residential buildings in the city - the so-called "Three Brothers" and the newly rebuilt House of the Blackheads, Old Riga is truly a masterpiece of architecture and antiquity.  Since the turn of the 21st century, Old Riga has adapted itself to the stream of tourists who pass through the whole year-round, by providing cosy hotels, numerous eateries and a variety of attractions, but the ancient spirit of the city has not been lost.  This is particularly apparent to the visitors who wander through some of the surprisingly narrow streets and alleyways which crisscross the Old City.
