Thanks, Chris! Glad you enjoyed it :)

Great review! Please come to Riga more often from Vilnius, there even is a flight daily from Vilnius to Riga and it takes about 40 minutes. Actually, lots of people from Vilnius prefer Jūrmala - Riga seaside at the summer, because it is roughly the same distance from Lithuanian seaside and Jūrmala is much bigger than Palanga - 50km of white sandy beaches just in Jūrmala, and also in Jūrmala you can find a lot of wooden Jugendstil architecture which is quite cool :)

Riga is a very beautiful city, i had a chance to explore 2 weeks ago and lido is damn good food. I would go again if the army tells me too

Riga Really is Beautiful & Amazing city 👌🏼💯🔝💕

Awesome , thank you

Half an hour Train journey from Riga is Jurmala. Amazing long beach there and great for amazing sunsets

Sveiki

Yes. Šito. Norėjau

Hardly anyone goes there why? It's such a beautiful city 👍🏻👍🏻😄

No flea market with antiques??

What's the weather like in April in Riga ?

The cafes and the food and drink on offer seem to have improved since I last visited in 2008.

I wonder if there was anything going on in the world in 2008 that might have affected small businesses such as cafes? 🤔

What would you recommend then? I will fly to Riga in 4 days :)

It is my 3rd day in Riga, I have to say I am pretty disappointed ... it's having a huge construction work incl. Baltic rails in the city centre, air quality is pretty bad and is dusty so I didn't find it enjoyable walking on the street ... and I also not prefer walking via the pedestrian subway, especially I go with my suitcase... also, homeless people seems more than Vilnius. I just finished my 1 week Vilnius trip and I have to say I like Vilnius much more than Riga... maybe too many construction work currently make the city vibe pretty messy right now. Vilnius is cleaner and more laidback (which I like).

Hello! I understand what you mean as we did not like Riga as much as Tallinn. We tried, our best to show the best side of Riga in our video that we just released on our channel. Sorry you did not enjoy Riga. Happy traveling.

​@@user-pw7ie3id1fBaltic countries were occupied and robbed by the ussr into banktruptcy and they still were the "richest" in the union by your ruzzki standards which is both sad and hilarious. They would be at the same level of development as Sweden and Finland are today if it weren't for your "liberation". Nobody asked for you to stay here

City is beautiful but there’s a lot of scammers , sad and depressed peoples

Do not go to Latvia for seaside tourism!!!. Latvian police set traps for unsuspecting tourists and issue fines from 100 to 1000 euros for violations of the "protected zone", although there are no boundaries from where to it, no signs and information boards that it is a protected zone.

I would not suggest living in Latvia. The country is not safe and you are treated better if you are wealthy. For foreigners it is a cheap country, for Latvians is really expensive. Minimal wage is 500 euros per month, minimal pension 150/160 euros per month.

How can you even come here and say shit like this? I have been living in Latvia (Riga) for the past 4 years and I’ve never feel like I was in an unsafe country.
