Book Riga flights on CheapOair and visit this historic the 'Paris of the North.’ Over a decade after Latvia declared independence from the Soviet Union, Riga (RIX) is a city on the up and up. Riga is an emerging tourist destination with spruced up visitor attractions and an ever-burgeoning proliferation of hotels at all levels. Riga, older than both Stockholm and St. Petersburg, is the only Baltic capital to have a big-city buzz. Most of the sights are handily located within a compact area on the left bank of the Daugava River. The Old Town overflows with things to see but one of the real pleasures is just wandering around the cobbled streets, taking an architectural journey through the centuries, in a city where Gothic, Renaissance, and Art Nouveau abound, often competing for attention on the same street. Recognized sights include the voluminous religious twins of St Peter’s Church and Dome Cathedral, both worth exploring in detail.
