Latvia is my home and I love my country. At first I can say that for other Europe Latvia is very cheap place to go and travel. For us maybe prices are too high but for tourists they are quite cheap. In Latvia there are a lot of places to go. Maybe not big supermarkets or buildings, but great places to rest on free nature! What can be better than primary nature and fresh air!? Nothing! So there's a lot of guest houses in Latvia near the rivers or lakes where you can rest from city life. Those who are interested in history will be fascinated by the medieval castles. If you want make some fun and get new knowledge you should go to OldRiga. That's the place where you can see beautiful churches and other historical buildings or drink good latvian beer in pleasant cafes or buy some gifts to your family or friends. If you prefer active relaxation I suggest you to go to river Gauja and rent boat and make some extreme boat trip! I could say a lot more but that's not possible to say all that you must see in Latvia!
