Today, they are used as museums carrying traces of Riga’s architectural past. Our next stop is Riga Cathedral, which began construction in 1211 and is the largest cathedral in the Baltic region.

Later in the day, we travel to Jurmala, one of the tranquil coastal towns on the Baltic Sea. Jurmala is famous for its long, golden sandy beaches and peaceful atmosphere. Here, we will take a walk by the sea, enjoy the ocean, and breathe in the fresh sea air. After the tour, we return to our hotel in Riga and have free time to rest.
