It’s really safe city!!! Don’t worry when you are hanging outside late at night. It is safe and beautiful city to visit. Old town is so pretty. There are no pickpockets and such problems. Welcome to Riga

Old Riga is a wonderful place to be! It's always buzzing, it truly never sleeps. The area is saturated with tourists and locals alike, because the area is truly beautiful, it is right in the heart of Riga as well. It contains countless café's, restaurants, shops, museums, bars, churches, anything you could want in one place. After the sun sets, you can see how the city parties! Every bar is filled with smiles from tourists and locals alike. The most active street is Grēcinieku iela - Sinners...
