THE SOUL OF RIGA
Market Arches — Riga Central Market
History & Facts
Riga Central Market opened in 1930. Its five halls were built using former Zeppelin hangar structures, making it one of the largest market complexes in Europe.

Interesting
In 1998, the Central Market was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage list as a unique example of industrial architecture.

Author’s Note
I chose this angle to emphasize the monumental arches. In infrared, the halls become timeless symbols of Riga’s living heart.
