Overview
If you are to understand Riga, you have to experience its past filled both with happiness and sorrow.
During this tour, we will turn back the wheel of time. Only a few decades ago Riga looked, spoke, and thought differently – in line with Soviet ideas. Even today, the city preserves the symbols of that time – the Monument of the Latvian Riflemen and the Occupation Museum, the Academy of Sciences, and the restored Cathedral of the Nativity of Christ, which used to be the home of a planetarium.
The guides of this tour will share their memories and private stories about living under the Communist regime.
