Riga

Riga is declared Unesco-world heritage, mainly because of the Jugendstil houses

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


in this house is a small museum

 


the stair gate in this museum


 

 


not all Jugendstil houses are restaurated

 

 

Another detail of one of the Jugendstil houses,
by coincidence this painter makes this movement on the moment a took the shot.
And he has the ideal t-shirt on!



the Orthodox birth of Christ cathedral


in the old center: the dome square (Doma Laukums)


the best known place : de Saint Peter church, the city hall and the house of the Black Heads

 

 


 

 

 

The eldest house

 

 



some distance further with the local train,
the people from Riga regard this nevertheless as their bath place: Jürmala
