Presence of the Port — Riga Passenger Port
History & Facts
The Riga Passenger Port was established in the mid-20th century and became the main gateway for ferries and cruise ships. It connects Latvia with major Northern European ports such as Helsinki, Stockholm, and Tallinn.

Interesting
The port also regularly hosts NATO and international naval vessels, as shown in the image. This highlights Riga’s strategic importance in the Baltic Sea region.

Author’s Note
To me, this view felt like a dialogue between the calm rhythm of the city and the firm presence of naval forces. The sun and water gave the scene both contrast and serenity.
