A must visit in Riga. It documents the horrors of Russian occupation and what Latvians had to endure

I remember going to an old building. The gate is very inconspicuous, just around the corner of the street, a seemingly ordinary house of the old building, a small door, looking up to see the above line clearly written Latvia's occupied period museum, exhibiting the history of the KGB in Latvia. Although the facade of the museum is small, there is no cave inside. The entrance is a short introduction to the history of Riga city. This is not the focus, the focus is on the whole point of explanation service, the librarian will unlock you into the inner room, and the gloomy and scary cells gradually come into view, as the interpreter pushes open the door of the prison, a section of the shocking dusty KGB history in Latvia is one by one Unblocked.

Located next to the Blackhead Palace, the appearance is a large black flat box, very solemn. Latvians have always thought that they have been an independent kingdom since ancient times, before being "occupied" by the Soviet Union, and then regained independence after their dissolution, so they have this occupied memorial. Unfortunately, I have not had the opportunity to enter, I don't know what kind of exhibits there are inside.

When I went, the museum was closed and temporarily moved to an old building outside the park on the northeast border of the old city. The museum is free and voluntary. The exhibits are mainly pictures. In terms of content, the country hates the former Soviet Union far more than Nazi Germany (in fact, they don't see them hating Germans, they even treat Nazis as liberators. The enemy of the so-called enemy is friends).

There are usually few places where there is such a museum that can make the mind quiet and enjoy the present.
