Riga isn’t just about the red roof to reveal Latvia’s car culture

✨ When you think of Riga, the first thing that comes to your mind is the medieval ancient city? In fact, the car culture here is super cool! 🚀💎 [History imprint] As a pioneer of the automotive industry, Krastin, which was introduced in 1901, built cars earlier than Ford, but unfortunately the factory fire brought the legend to an abrupt end. To visit the treasure of Riga, be sure to check in the Vintage Car Museum, the largest automotive museum in the Baltic Sea, exhibiting nearly 200 cars from 1769-2006, the back of the museum is still Riga’s Kegums Circuit. 😉 🚗 Riga Auto Museum | S.Eizenšteina 6, Rīga 👉 Bus 15 goes directly to "Motormuzejs Station", get off the bus and you can see this treasure land of steel and time intertwined! 🎭 Highlights in the museum | Each car is the protagonist of the story ✅ The treasure of the town museum reveals historical fragments The 1980 "Brezhnev car accident version" Rolls-Royce is super eye-catching! The scars from the truck collision are still clearly visible, as if one can hear the sighs of history. ✅ From retro to futuristic ▪️Super rare "Clastin 1905 purple speedboat", the light of Latvia that appeared two years earlier than Ford! ▪️Soviet period "Riga bus" made of wood + tin foil, retro feeling full ~ ▪️ BMW BabyBimmer, Fiat 503 and other classic cars seconds through to the golden age. ✅ Immersive experience area is super good to take pictures Industrial-style exhibition hall + light and shadow interlaced design, a casual photo is a magazine blockbuster! It is recommended to wear retro style or bright color clothes more video oh ~ 📌 Practical Tips | Play around the museum ✅ Must-visit route: 30 exhibition areas on 3 floors, it is recommended to start from the "origin of the automotive industry" on 1F, feel the transformation from steam engines to new energy. Immersive experience pulled full🎯 This is not just a museum, more like a moving encyclopedia of the automotive industry. Standing in front of those cars that once witnessed history, it was as if you were able to touch the pulse of time. Car fans really can't miss it!
