Старая Рига интересные места. Old Riga Latvia
Старая Рига — город с многовековой историей. По сей день здесь стоят старинные дома, в которых обитают призраки. Их даже можно встретить, если побродить по Старой Риге!
Средневековая архитектура города поражает своим могуществом и великолепием. Рига является одним сплошным памятником архитектуры, который стоит увидеть хотя бы раз в жизни!
Мы приглашаем всех ценителей архитектурного туризма на прогулку. Вы увидите множество интересных строений, услышите легенды о приведениях, и вместе с нами попробуете их отыскать!
