THE SOUL OF RIGA
Riga Courtyard Landscape
History & Facts
Riga’s city center developed in the 19th–20th centuries, when large rental houses with enclosed courtyards were built. These spaces were designed as practical living environments, combining residential and economic functions.

Interesting
Today, many courtyards serve as parking lots, but more and more are being transformed into creative and leisure areas with cafés and courtyard events.

Author’s Note
The aerial view reveals Riga’s center differently – as a hidden labyrinth of courtyards behind the historic facades.
