Sightseeing
I recommend that you visit this place to see the adorable architectural execution made by Gunar Birkert. The view, seen from 12 floors, is breathtaking to Daugava and the Old Town. You will be able to add more than Laviya Dina's cabinet, which has a very high historical value in Latvia's cultural heritage. You'll finally be able to dine at the 'Klīversala''.

Latvians have struggled hard for their country’s independence, and the sacrifice and triumph are summed up in one magnificent work of art in Riga.
Unveiled in 1935, the Freedom Monument has also played a major role in the country’s subsequent tumultuous history. The ensemble by sculptor Kārlis Zāle depicts the nation singing, working and fighting for liberty, crowned by a beautiful girl holding aloft three stars.
