Riga is a city of 717.371 people in Latvia. It is a really nice and charming capital. If you arrive in Riga from Moscow, it's like comparing black and white. It's very relaxing and welcoming. The people seem to be happy and enjoying life. You can spend few days or a week; there will always be something to do. The first thing to do is a walk in the old town. You can just walk around and enjoy the architecture. There are beautiful cathedrals, churches and typical little houses. After the old town, a walk along the river is also really enjoyable. The different bridges all have something unique from old to new style. If you are a bit more adventurous, you can try bobsleighing or shooting some weapons from Russia, like the famous AK47. For the bobsleigh the price is around 50 Euros, and for the shooting about 30 Euros. Around Riga, you can go for a day skiing. The skiing station is not comparable with the Alps but good enough to have a good time.
Regarding the restaurants and the bars, Riga can fulfill all your envy. You can eat local food, Chinese, French, Italian or Mexican. For the bars the choice is as wide as for the restaurants. You can choose from jazz club to nightclub, from lounge to traditional English pub. The atmosphere is really friendly and it seems everybody speaks English.
The transport in Riga is very convenient. The tramway system covers the whole city.
Next time you have some spare time, and you are hesitating on where to go, maybe Riga could be your destination. You can take Baltic airline or easy jet, and be there in few hours depending where you are. I don't think you will be disappointed, the city is really nice and relaxing city, and the people are very friendly.
