Leisure and life
Travel
Latvia has a very convenient geographic location where from you can easily travel both to Russia and Europe. It only takes 2 hours by plane to get to Moscow, Berlin or Prague. Low-cost airlines will definitely make you feel comfortable. You may take a cruise ferry from Riga to the Nordic countries, or just take the car or a bus to the neighbouring countries of Lithuania and Estonia.
Leisure
Latvia is rich in manors, country estates, palaces, and castles. These are a legacy of Teutonic Knights and the Russian aristocracy. Many of these majestic buildings have become hotels. Ecotourism has been developing steadily for more than 10 years. It offers foreigners and Latvians a quiet and balanced rest. Hundreds of cottages and motels gain certifications and offer their visitors a high level European service. You may stay in an 18th century manor, enjoy a spa in the morning, and then go horse riding through wooden trails. In winter you can spend your time at ski resorts or on bobsleigh tracks, but in summer, those fond of outside activities may try bungee-jumping or canoeing down the Gauja River.
Cuisine and food
Latvia is well known for its high quality food, which are mostly dairy and bakery products. The traditions of Latvian cuisine have been influenced by many other world known cuisines. As such, these days you may taste something extraordinary, for example bread soup, herring under curd cheese, rhubarb drink, etc. Modern Latvian cuisine is based on traditional elements, therefore it is virtually unique. You may find the best food products at farm markets, in specialized stores, and at the famous Riga market.
