Come here to Enjoy Riga’s BEST View!

The view from St. Peter’s Church tower in Riga is exceptional for several reasons: 1. **Panoramic Perspective**: The tower provides a 360-degree view of Riga, allowing visitors to see the city's layout, its historic Old Town, and the modern parts of the city all at once. 2. **Historic Landmarks**: From the observation deck, you can spot key landmarks such as the Riga Cathedral, the National Library, and the spires of other churches, offering a comprehensive view of the city’s architectural diversity. 3. **River Views**: The tower provides a view of the Daugava River, which adds to the scenic beauty and allows you to see the city's relationship with its natural surroundings. 4. **Old Town**: The elevation allows you to appreciate the medieval layout and architecture of Riga’s Old Town, including its narrow streets and historical buildings. 5. **Cityscape**: The height of the tower gives you a clear view of the contrast between the historic and modern areas of Riga, providing a complete picture of the city’s development. The combination of historical, architectural, and natural views makes the St. Peter’s Church tower one of the best spots for seeing Riga from above. #localescapes #riga

Tie your shoelaces! You still have long way to go🚶🏿 Btw I truely love Riga especially the old town area! I believe this is not a popular tourist place to Asian as I barely see an Asian face in the street. This is just too good taking a stroll on the street which is not crowded. Although I only spent one day there I walked almost everywhere. Literally, I enjoyed every moment there❤️ #beyondborders #beyondborders
