I like Riga a lot, it is nice and lovely town. But I haven´t succeeded in really enjoying this place – first time I visited Riga it was a bit snowy and rainy and really cold, so didn’t get to see much. Second time around my friend lost her purse, so we spent all the time in Riga the police station and in embassy (weather this time was excellent) and now the third time it was raining again… No luck for me.

Hope next time will be better luck ;)

finally a real glimpse of eastern europe! ive been hunting for the quiet eastern european city with nice bakeries,small cafes and not a hoard of tourists. it seems ive found it in riga(surprisingly). lots of old cobbled streets, very pretty, and yet around the outskirts is the older houses that are slowly turning to rubble. well worth a visit for a laid back romantic weekend!! there were a few stag do’s on sat nite wandering around, but nothing compared to prague or any uk town on the weekend, the locals keep to themselves but most speak english,german and russian(as well as lat!) 5 stars!

I was only hear for one day but it was a beautiful day in late spring. The sky was clear, the people were friendly, and the ice cream was plentiful. The only thing was there were some many tourists! I guess you can expect that at this time of year. But everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves so that’s good!
