What travelers say:
Whenever you see the vivid and lively "Latvian national costume puppets" purchased in Latvia in the gift display cabinet, you can't help but think of the virgin forests and bonfires in Latvia. This "wind and cow irrelevant" memory is not easy to understand for some travel friends, but when you live in Latvia for a few days, you will know that everything in this country is closely related to the virgin forest.

The Latvian War Museum in Riga is built in a red castle. It shows a large number of relics of the Balkan war, many of which are World War II objects. It is very detailed. It makes you deeply feel the cruelty of the war and the desire for peace.
The price is still OK, the display in the museum seems to put people in war! May world peace, no war
Remember that Yugoslavia was once a part of it, and you can understand this history more systematically and comprehensively.
Very interesting museum but be prepared to spend there quite a lot of time if you're a history nerd and want to see, experience and read everything. FREE ENTRANCE
