Stunning Architecture in Riga, Latvia| Art Nouveau Riga| Jugendstil | Visit Riga| Travel Latvia
Riga is the perfect destination for architecture lovers. It is a hidden gem waiting to be explored. Art Nouveau or Jugendstil is widely recognizable when walking the streets of Riga.
This video captures Alberta Street, Elizabetes Street and Antonijas Street- 3 amazing streets situated right next to each other, the perfect route for an architecture walk. I promise your neck will be hurting after walking these streets and looking up at the beautiful details of each building.
The beauty they entail is hard to describe or capture into a video.
I'm really sorry for the shaky camera footage but hopefully, this video gives you a little insight on how beautiful Riga is and I highly suggest you to consider it as one of your future travel destinations.
Wishing you a beautiful day,
-Amelie

Riga Old Town, Jūrmala Beach and View from St. Peter's Church. The train ride from Riga station to Jūrmala Beach was very affordable and frequent.

[한국어 정보]
리가 시내에서 유명한 중앙시장을 찾았다. 1930년에 처음 열린 이곳은 유럽에서 가장 크고 현대적인 시장이었다. 현재도 규모가 상당한 시장으로 라트비아의 많은 사람들이 이곳을 찾는다. 시장은 육류와 유제품, 견과류와 농산품 등 제품을 구역별로 나눠서 영업하고 있다. 알록달록 채소가 먹음직스럽게 보이는 이곳은 염장채소를 파는 곳이다. 낯익은 오이지도 보인다. “소금에 절인 오이인데 먹어 보세요” 혹시 다른 향신료를 넣어서 맛이 다를까 해서 먹어봤는데 한국과 똑같은 맛이다. 발트해 연안에 있는 나라답게 사람들이 가장 많이 찾는 코너는 뭐니뭐니 해도 해산물. 생선의 종류가 다양하기도 하지만 판매하는 방식도 염장에서 훈제까지 다양하다. 그 중 가장 많이 찾고 인기가 있는 건 훈제 생선이다. “무엇을 샀어요?” “훈제 연어를 샀어요” “여기는 아주 유서 깊은 시장이에요. 유명한 시장인 게 전부가 아니에요. 이 시장은 1930년에 만들어졌는데 독일 체펠린 비행기 격납고로 쓰던 옛 공간을 활용해 만든 거죠. 전쟁이 끝남에 따라 리가에 반납되어 이런 시장이 만들어질 수 있었던 거예요”

I found a famous central market in Riga city. It was first opened in 1930 and was the largest and modern market in Europe. Many large Latvian people visit the market, which is still a large market. The market is divided into meats, dairy products, nuts and agricultural products. This is where you can find salads and vegetables. The familiar Oji is also seen. I eat salt - pickled cucumbers. I tried to eat other spices so I could taste them. It taste the same as Korea. As the country on the Baltic coast is the most popular spot for people, seafood is the best. There are various kinds of fish, but the way they are sold varies from salted to smoked. The most popular among them are smoked fish. What did you buy? I bought smoked salmon. This is a very historic market. It is not all that is famous market. This market was made in 1930 and made use of the old space used as the German Chepelin airplane hangar. This market could have been created by returning to Riga at the end of the war.
[Latvia: Google Translator]
Es atradu slavenu Rīgas centra tirgu. Tas vispirms tika atvērts 1930. gadā un bija lielākais un modernākais tirgus Eiropā. Daudzi lieli Latvijas iedzīvotāji apmeklē tirgu, kas joprojām ir liels tirgus. Tirgū ir sadalīta gaļa, piena produkti, rieksti un lauksaimniecības produkti. Šeit varat atrast salātus un dārzeņus. Pazīstams Oji ir arī redzams. Es ēdu sāli - marinēti gurķi. Es mēģināju ēst citus garšvielas, lai es varētu tos garšēt. Tas garšo tāpat kā Koreja. Tā kā Baltijas jūras piekrastes valsts ir vispopulārākā vieta cilvēkiem, vislabāk ir jūras veltes. Ir dažāda veida zivis, bet veids, kā tos pārdod, atšķiras no sālīta līdz kūpināta. Populārākie no tiem ir kūpinātas zivis. Ko jūs iegādājāties? Es nopirku kūpinātu lasi. Tas ir ļoti vēsturisks tirgus. Tas nav viss, kas ir slavens tirgus. Šis tirgus tika veikts 1930. gadā un izmantoja veco telpu, ko izmantoja kā vācu Chepelin lidmašīnas angāru. Šo tirgu varētu radīt, atgriežoties Rīgā pēc kara beigām.

WELCOME to ART RIGA FAIR 2018. Round Table Discussion “Documento Futurae” on ARF17
ANDRIS TEIKMANIS, Alexander Rappaport, Andrejs Krasņikovs, Paquita Escofet Miro, Dmitrijs Šagins, Dags Vidulejs, Arturs Avotins @ conference “What is Art” Eight Future Art Scenarios. 2018
Documento Futurae is an artistic research project conducted by Dr.art. ANDRIS TEIKMANIS. Documento Futurae was developed elaborating outcomes of the Art Future workshop and Art. Documento Futurae was not intended just to illustrate ideas that were delivered during conference. Documento Futurae was developed and elaborated as a self-su cient approach to use artistic means to address, challenge and forecast future.
Eight Future Art Scenarios is an example of Documento Futurae demonstrating how proposed politic, economic and technological uncertatinties should be used to forecasting not only future scenarious but also future art role models.
Apaļā galda diskusija “Documento Futurae”
Astoņi nākotnes mākslas scenāriji. 2018.
Documento Futurae ir Dr.art. ANDRA TEIKMAŅA māksliniecisko pētījumu projekts. Documento Fu- turae tika izstrādāta un īstenota kā pašpietiekama māksliniecisko instrumentu pielietošanas metode pievēršoties, risinot un paredzot nākotnes attīstības modeļus.
Astoņi nākotnes mākslas scenāriji ir piemērs, kurš demonstrē kā politiskās, ekonomiskās un tehnoloģiskās nenoteiktības var tikt izmantotas ne tikai, lai paredzētu nākotnes scenārijus, bet arī, lai paredzētu mākslas nākotnes lomu modeļus.

Latvia/Riga (Maskavas Forštate) Part 2
Welcome to my travelchannel.On my channel you can find almost 1000 films of more than 70 countries.
See the playlist on my youtube channel.Enjoy!
The Riga Ghetto was a small area in Maskavas Forštate, a neighborhood of Riga, Latvia, designated by the Nazis where Jews from Latvia, and later from Germany, were forced to live during World War II. On October 25, 1941, the Nazis relocated all Jews from Riga and the vicinity to the ghetto while the non-Jewish inhabitants were evicted. Most of the Latvian Jews (about 24,000) were killed on November 30 and December 8, 1941 in the Rumbula massacre. The Nazis transported a large number of German Jews to the ghetto; most of them were later killed in massacres.
While the Riga Ghetto is commonly referred to as a single entity, in fact there were several ghettos. The first was the large Latvian ghetto. After the Rumbula massacre, the surviving Latvian Jews were concentrated in a smaller area within the original ghetto, which became known as the small ghetto. The small ghetto was divided into men's and women's sections. The area of the ghetto not allocated to the small ghetto was then reallocated to the Jews being deported from Germany, and became known as the German ghetto.Wikipedia
Exploring Riga's Art Nouveau District, Riga, Latvia
Riga, the capital of Latvia, was a fast growing trading port in the Russian Empire in the late 1800s and early 1900s when the Art Nouveau architecture style was especially popular.
A consequence of this is that as many of the surviving buildings in Riga's city center are built in the Art Nouveau style, the highest such concentration of buildings in this style in the world.
Riga's Art Nouveau District is just to the north of the city's medieval Old Town area. It's a great place to explore on foot to get a taste of this highlight of Riga.

Look at Riga - trailer ENG/LV(2018)
ENG:
The first multidimensional movie Look at Riga was created as a tour around the urban environment, where the city’s historical charm together with the zealous rhythm of modern metropolis is caught, meanwhile viewing its most significant historical, art and architectural objects from another point of view. It is captured as a dynamic flight, and watching it is like taking part in a real tour with a presence effect. Together with animation, sound effects and the usage of 5D technology lets the audience not only to travel virtually, but also feel real emotions. The use of 3D stereoscopic images, movement imitation, wind gusts, water splashes, touch, vibrations and other presence effects turns the audience from passive travellers into active ones.
Visiting the informative art space Look at Riga has become more and more popular between tourists and locals, because it allows the audience to travel around the city in only 12 minutes, furthermore, the weather is invariably perfect.
The movie targets a large demographic – children, youth, adults and also seniors.
The cinema is equipped with 12 seats and the newest 5D Video and Audio Technologies. The cinema's lobby offers the best Latvian artist and designer store.

Light Festival in LATVIA STARORIGA 2019.11.16
Anniversary event in the capital Riga.
Attracting crowds of visitors to see more than 40 objects Ar Rigas Area.
Every year, more and more Light and Laser 4D Projects are being added to this wonderful event that takes place this entire weekend of November until Monday night when LATVIA's birthday is celebrated.
“The uncertainty of the global era and over-production of information generates impulses for the exploration of other or different dimensions and new algorithms, heading into a virtual network and broadened reality, crossing boundaries in the great flow of data,” is how she comments, specifically on the theme of this year’s festival. “In offering their light objects for the Staro Riga Festival, light artists were invited to define the four dimensions of their light object. This broad theme can be interpreted freely, both from the perspective of science, as well as delving into philosophical studies, which lead beyond the horizon of actual experience, questioning everything which seems irrational in a field of limited knowledge and in a zone of traditional, stereotypical assumptions.”
The Staro Riga International Light Festival will be taking place for the twelfth time now, from 15th to 18th November. This year, the theme will be 4D or the four dimensions of light art – time, space, the person and light, which the artists at the festival have interpreted, each according to their own creative plan.
A large variety of forms of light art are represented at the festival, from relatively standard objects right up to generative art. In total, 35 light art objects, which are divided into two programmes will be on view at the festival this year. The objects for the festival’s basic programme were selected through a competition between artists, while the second programme was created by Staro Rīga partners and includes 13 objects.
Artists from six countries – Latvia, Estonia, Denmark, Germany, France and Great Britain are participating at this year’s festival to celebrate the nation’s birthday in Riga. The most striking artistic trends this time are the laser projections and a creative type of interactivity, expressed in various forms of light art. The placement of the objects will be quite intensive and easily accessible, located mainly in the Old Town and Riga’s centre, but three festival objects, equally worthy of viewing will also be located a little further from the central part of the city at Riga International Airport, the Latvian Academy of Sport Education and at Agenskalns Market.
There will also be a special events programme at the festival for the first time. Here you will be able to view internationally famous legendary British multi-media artist Brian Eno’s installation 77 Million Paintings at Riga Art Space or visit popular Latvian pop singer Aminata’s new mini-album presentation in the square by the Latvian National Opera. A light installation which has been created, inspired by her music, will be located here throughout the festival. The traditional Staro Riga Festival Run will also be taking place, with participant registration on the starorigaskrejiens.lv. homepage.
“Light festivals and light art in an urban environment are a relatively new art genre, which have introduced diverse forms of expression in quite a brief period – video projections, free-standing environmental installations, as well as interactive light objects which festival viewers can create and improve using a variety of technologies and the virtual environment,” says Staro Rīga Artistic Director Diāna Čivle. “The light festival transforms the city into a huge exhibition hall where you can enjoy large-scale art objects created by light artists while you walk. They can be found on building facades, monuments, on footpaths, in parks, in trees and even on bodies of water.”
“The uncertainty of the global era and over-production of information generates impulses for the exploration of other or different dimensions and new algorithms, heading into a virtual network and broadened reality, crossing boundaries in the great flow of data,” is how she comments, specifically on the theme of this year’s festival. “In offering their light objects for the Staro Riga Festival, light artists were invited to define the four dimensions of their light object. This broad theme can be interpreted freely, both from the perspective of science, as well as delving into philosophical studies, which lead beyond the horizon of actual experience, questioning everything which seems irrational in a field of limited knowledge and in a zone of traditional, stereotypical assumptions.”

The objects will be on view from 5pm till 11pm during all four days of the festival.
