Riga

Riga (Inscribed)

Riga by Els Slots

I am living here for 12 years now. The city is magnificent, and it is ridiculous that most tourists see just the Old City which looks rather similar to hundreds of Old Cities elsewhere in Europe. Ok it is not bad at all but you should see the boulewards, the thousands of Art Noveau and Eclectism style houses, thousands of ornate wooden houses (most unfortunately are in bad condition).

Hundreds of times I have found inspiration and joy just by looking at incredible beauty of these houses.

Come and see Riga before it is spoiled by mass tourism and modern, tasteless architecture!
