Riga Old Town

Riga Old Town is the historic heart of Latvia’s capital, known for its cobbled streets, medieval churches, and well-preserved architecture spanning Gothic, Baroque, and Art Nouveau influences nearby. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, it offers a compact mix of landmarks, cafés, museums, and lively squares that are easy to explore on foot. Visitors come for its atmosphere as much as its history: it is a good choice for travelers interested in architecture, local culture, and a walkable introduction to Riga.
