Riga Central Market

Planning a visit to Riga, Latvia's capital? Immerse yourself in Latvian culture and traditions at the Central Market, where merchants offer a mix of typical and unique products, showcasing both long-standing favorites and new flavors of Latvia.

Adjacent to the market is the Spikeri creative district, featuring a complex of buildings surrounding a spacious square. A hub for city events and cultural festivals such as White Nights, Staro Riga, and Riga City Festival, it's a vibrant social gathering place.
