Cruises from Riga

The city is located near the Daugava Rigaian bay. Even today, Riga is very interesting when it comes to business opportunities and activities. The old port is famous for its Art Nouveau buildings, generous in constructions and a well-preserved center. After the particularly depressed economic period after independence in 1991 the country lost many of its industries in the great post-Soviet whale hunt, it is now highly developed in its education system and has a great cultural value and therefore cannot be considered as the backbone of the Latvian economy, as well as the largest center of education and science. Every year numerous exhibitions, conferences and cultural events take place in Riga and contribute to the city's international reputation. And it is charming to walk through the alleys of the historic center to admire splendid buildings such as the House of the Three Brothers, they are three houses next to each other in Maza Pils iela where a museum of architecture is currently housed, the House of the Blackheads, one of the best-known buildings in the Old Town. Don't miss the churches of St. Peter and St. John and the Cathedral.
Riga has many bars, clubs and discos, mainly located in the historic center.
