Old Riga (Vecrīga): forbidden

Rules in force · 5Old Town cobbles and steep old-house stairs are hard with…
  • Latvia ↗Latvia is in the EU and the Schengen area; the EU Entry/Exit System applies to non-EU visitors. Check the official EU and Latvian sources for your passport.
  • Latvia ↗Borders with Russia and Belarus are not routes for casual travel; check your government's advice before going near them.
  • Latvia ↗Validate public transport tickets when you board in Riga; inspectors fine unvalidated riders.
  • Riga ↗Old Town cobbles and steep old-house stairs are hard with large suitcases: bags go from the car to the door, never on a walk.
  • Riga ↗Check prices before ordering in Old Town bars and never follow touts or 'friendly' strangers to a venue; a few add large charges.
