Arts & Culture

Latvian National Museum of Art and the Rundale Palace and Museum are great places to start learning about Latvia’s artistic heritage. For families, the Riga Motor Museum Offers up a fun experience.

If you are interested in Soviet history, do not miss the once top-secret Soviet bunker in rural Līgatne. For music lovers, Latvia has a solid tradition of choral music and folk dancing dating back to the mid-19th century. This tradition has paved the way for music festivals such as Positivus and Skaņu Mežs.
