Travel Tips in Latvia

On the Latvian Baltic Sea Coast, you will find small fishing villages with a unique charm, white sand beaches, pine forests and a beautiful, long coastline.

Riga is not only the capital of Latvia, but also the largest city in the Baltics. The Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and should not be missed.

In the east of the country you will see why Latvia is also known as the ‘Land of the Blue Lakes’. The highlands of Latgale are populated by more than 800 lakes.
