Riga Things to do in Riga

No visitor to Riga should miss the chance to take a vertigo-inducing trip to the top of the spire at St Peter's church, which was the highest building in the city for a long time, and there are some fantastic views and photo opportunities from the viewing gallery at the top. Thankfully there is no need to exhaust yourself using the winding staircase, as a modern lift was installed several years ago, which makes the trip to the top a good deal easier.
