Overview
This is the first walking tour in Riga to focus primarily on the city’s history through the perspective of Latvians themselves. Instead of emphasizing foreign rulers and medieval trade, it highlights Latvian culture, identity, and the road to independence. The route goes beyond the Old Town to reveal landmarks connected to Latvian intellectual life, art, and social movements. Stories are tied to real people, writers, and cultural leaders who shaped modern Latvia. Ideal for travelers who want meaningful context rather than surface-level sightseeing.
