With waterfalls, beaches, medieval villages, and national parks, Latvia is aptly referred to as the “Gem of the Baltics.” Here are some must-visit sites to visit when you’re in Latvia.
Old City Riga: The historically significant Baroque Clock Tower, St. Peter’s Church, and the House of the Black Heads are just a few of the surprises that await you in Latvia’s capital city.
Gauja National Park: This is the largest national park in Latvia, where you can explore gigantic caves, go hiking and mountain biking along cliffs, or canoe on the Gauja River.
Venta Rapid: Europe’s widest waterfall, which is a natural wonder and one of the only places where you can watch fish swimming upstream trying to overcome the waterfall.
