Views Around Jelgava, Latvia - 15th January, 2014
Jelgava is a city in central Latvia about 41 kilometres (25 miles) southwest of Riga with about 64,000 inhabitants. It is the largest town in the region of Zemgale (Semigalia). I visited there for a day on the train from Riga, the journey time was 50 minutes.
Jelgava isn't a particularly 'touristy' destination, there are some wonderful architectural sites, particularly the churches and palace, some parts of the town are quite run down, but I found it to be a charming representation of real Latvia, that you don't find with Riga.
I spent 5 hours in Riga on a slow circular walk with a meal and lots of photographs en-route. I filmed as I walked around, and this video is the edited fruits of my labour, the following locations and features are all identified in the film: Stacijas Parks, St. John's Evangelical Lutheran's Church, Pasta iela, St. George's Church, Orthodox Church, Academia Petrina, Holy Trinity Church Tower, Inside the top of Holy Trinity Church Tower, Views over Jelgava from Holy Trinity Church Tower, the French Restaurant in Holy Trinity Church Tower - the food is EXCELLENT, Driska River, Pils Parks, Mitava Palace (Latvia University of Agriculture), Lielupe River, Lielupe Bridge, Mitavas Bridge, Skating on Pasta Island and Jelgava Railway Station.
I really enjoyed my day in Jelgava and would recommend it to other visitors to Riga and Latvia.

The Tower of Holy Trinity church is a symbol of Jelgava's history. Renovated and opened for visitors in 2010 it now is a splendid centrepiece of Jelgava's silhouette.
Holy Trinity church is considered to have been one of the first brick churches built for a Lutheran congregation in Europe and is also the first brick building in Jelgava. Built from 1574 by a project of the Dutch builder Joris Joriszn Frese it held service in 1575. The church was finished in 1615.

Liepājā iesvētīts katedrāles kristāmtrauks
Lieldienās Liepājas Svētās Trīsvienības katedrāle pirmo reizi savā īpašumā ieguvusi kristāmtrauku. Mācītājs atzīst, ka skulpturāla veidojuma kristāmtraukus Latvijas luterāņu baznīcās var redzēt visai reti, taču Svētās Trīsvienības katedrāles draudze tādu vēlējusies. Bijusi arī vēlme atstāt paliekošu vērtību nākamajām paaudzēm. Stāsta TV Kurzeme.
