[Old Town of Riga | Enjoy a stroll through the medieval streets and riverside in the capital of Latvia] Experience the beauty and serenity of Riga on foot

Riga is a city that retains a strong medieval atmosphere, and the Old Town is attractive because there are many interesting things to see even just by walking around. It is lively and lively during the day, and at night the illuminated cityscape and the scenery along the river were fantastic. The promenade along the river is well maintained and is perfect for a leisurely stroll to feel the atmosphere of Riga. Landmark tourist attractions are concentrated within walking distance, so even a short time was worth spending. ⸻ 📍 [Location] Entire Old Town of Riga (Vecrīga) Representative spots: Riga Cathedral, Hall of the Blackheads, Promenade along the Duaugava River 🕰 [Visiting hours] Outdoors can be explored freely all day * There are restrictions on the time to visit inside churches, etc. Example: Riga Cathedral is open from 10:00 to 17:00 (varies depending on the season) ⸻ ✨[Recommended points] ・The Old Town is filled with European-style cobblestones and colorful buildings ・The riverside walk is a hidden gem where you can relax between sightseeing ・Historic buildings such as the Hall of the Blackheads and Riga Cathedral are also worth seeing ⸻ 🎒[Tips] ・Many of the streets in the Old Town are cobblestoned, so comfortable shoes are a must ・Early mornings and evenings are recommended times for those who want to enjoy the city quietly, as there are fewer tourists ・Some tickets are required to visit and enter churches, so check in advance ⸻ #RigaWalk #Latvia #AbsolutelyFreeTrip
