Koгда планирoвать поездку?
Riga is undoubtedly an all-year destination. During the summer the nearby white-sand beaches are packed with sun-worshipers, whilst during the height of winter Riga resembles the scene on a traditional Christmas card with its cobbled streets, church spires and medieval buildings wrapped in a blanket of pristine snow.
Riga has many fantastic attractions and must-see sights that you have to experience during your visit. For more information, the exclusive Out-There Sightseeing Tour allows you to gain an informed insight and knowledge of the history and culture of Latvia.
In general, Riga is a very safe and hospitable city, if you treat the people and environment around you with respect and courtesy your time here will be one of enjoyment and engagement! Start stepping out of line and you might not be so warmly welcomed!
It is a great sign of respect and will get you a long way with the locals if you take 30 minutes, or so, to read through and try to remember some of these Latvian phrases - good luck!!
Charles Bronson: Regarded by many as the personification of the tough guy, Bronson starred in the war epic "The Great Escape" in 1963. There are many Latvians who now claim him as one of their own, but neighbouring Lithuania appear to have a stronger case. Bronson died in 2003, aged 81.
The Latvian Institute's new promotional video "Sounds Like Latvia" features what could become a memorable trademark for the city of Riga - talking Art Nouveau statues that introduce Latvia as a place for fun, business and excitement.
Latvians going cinema crazy!
More than 2 million cinema seats were sold in Latvia during 2006. Despite the death of the small cinema theatre in Latvia there was actually a rise of around 22 per cent in cinema audiences last year.
