THE SOUL OF RIGA
Rhythm of Arches — Riga Railway Bridge
History & Facts
The Riga Railway Bridge was first built in 1914 and reconstructed in 1955 after wartime damage. It remains the main rail crossing over the Daugava, serving both passenger and freight trains.

Interesting
At night the bridge is illuminated with dynamic LED lights, changing colors during holidays and major events. It is a favorite subject in Riga’s panoramas.

Author’s Note
A long exposure smooths the Daugava and sets the sky in motion. The arches form a visual rhythm — the heartbeat of Riga.
