Latvia, the Baltic country, is not one of Europe's most popular or well-known destinations. This is true for both American and European tourists. Russian tourists have long been drawn to the small country at the Baltic Sea. Latvia's rich history, beautiful nature, and turbulent past make it a great vacation spot for both city-trippers and outdoor enthusiasts. Latvia is free from the same problems of mass tourism as other European countries. Even during the summer peak season, there are few tourists and the prices are affordable. Latvia is home to many beautiful sights, including picturesque cities and lush forests as well as sandy beaches. These are the top 10 places to visit in Latvia, no matter if you're planning a trip around the Baltic Sea or just a quick getaway.

The city's exterior appearance has not changed much over the centuries so you can get an idea of how it looked back then. The Swedish Gate and the Cat House are two other remarkable houses that you should visit. They both have Art Nouveau elements. The Cat House is topped by cat statues, which have become a symbol for Riga. Another landmark in Riga is the Swedish Gate. It once linked the town barracks to the inner city. We recommend St Peter's Church if you want to view the Old Town from up high. The tower is 130m tall and offers a spectacular view of Riga.
