Enjoy the excellent baking
The capital of Latvia - is not the most suitable place to comply with a strict diet. Food temptations are everywhere. Firstly, it is, of course, baking. Sweet buns and cakes, served in Riga to coffee with cream, there are several dozen species - with cinnamon, apple, poppy. Secondly, cakes "Old Town" - they, of course, small, but who is limited to one. Third, soft, thick and fresh (it is not stored for a long time) Jani cheese with caraway seeds.
Finally, the patties with bacon and other toppings. Even the most bizarre combinations of flavors in Riga cafes - like herring with cottage cheese - somehow makes the impression of something very homely and familiar since childhood. And, importantly, to see how Riga justifies the title of the Baltic gastronomic capital, do not have to spend a lot of money - the prices in the local institutions are generally available. In addition to numerous restaurants, pastry shops and cafes there's a central market with fresh farm dairy products.

Riga's architecture is so interesting that the newcomers, walking through the Old Town, not even put the camera in the bag. And this is understandable: every building is a work of art. Dome Cathedral, Riga Palace, The Cat's House, Three Brothers...And in order to better understand the rules of construction of historical buildings in Riga, it is worth visiting the Museum of Art Nouveau.

Riga is especially good from the bird’s height. View of the Old Town and the beautiful Dvina from the observation deck of St. Peter's Church can’t but impress. St. Peter's Church is famous for clear and proportionate architectural lines, as well as a spike, to get it up to the sky.
