Today another tourist photo. The church is St.Peter’s Cathedral. You can go up there and see Old Riga from above. Some nice shots can be made from there. I promise, I will go there and after that post some shots. Someday later.

The red house is called Blackheads House. It was destroyed during World War II along with other buildings forming a city municipality square (called Rātslaukums), but in nineties it was rebuild. There are lots of discussions if it was a right decision or not, but the tourists like this place.

ABOUT THE SITE

This site is a collection of my photos from Latvia. During the winter there are less updates because the weather is often terrible. But the time from May till October is very good for going out and taking photos.

Everyone may use my photos for non-commercial purposes. But don't forget to mention where they come from!
