Riga is so beautiful

  1. I’m a Canadian who’s descended from Latvian refugees during WWII. They thought they were just going to leave for a few months, and then they couldn’t come back until the 90s.

    I grew up hearing stories about Latvia, so much so that I almost felt more pride about Latvia than Canada, where I was born.

    I’m visiting for the first time and I’ve got to say – I’m not even biased. Riga is just insanely beautiful.

  2. That purely depends on which part of the Rīga you’re looking at. Center, Mežaparks and so on is beautiful.
    Now go to Maskavas Street, Pļavnieki or even around Avotu Street and you’ll feel like the dudes from Euro Trip coming to Bratislava 😅

  3. Glad you get to see it for yourself. I lived abroad for almost 7 years and missed Latvia nearly everyday. There is something about this country that makes me never wanna leave again. The food, the nature, the people, the art and culture. Just so happy to be born here. Of course, I can’t speak for all latvians, but I think most people immensely love their country/land (despite it’s problems).

  4. From all the places in Riga you had to choose the russian embassy?

  5. Even on a sweet post like this sourpatch losers in the comments will still find the time to complain.

  6. Neat! I’ve had good times with Canadians of different roots in the old town pubs – hope you have a great continued stay.
