Another Travel Guide RĪGA
A fresh and extraordinary book – Another Travel Guide Riga – is being released this winter. The full panoply of the city’s beauty and eight centuries of a complex history that’s still vibrant and alive are unveiled in a creative and appealing manner. Both its eclectic style and various modern accents are showcased, as are different exciting phenomena generated by artists, designers and other talented Riga residents.
The first thing today’s demanding traveller seeks is a good friend who lives in the city he or she wants to explore – someone to reveal things that aren’t normally included in traditional tourist guidebooks. You need those who know a city intimately to show you their favourite neighbourhoods, streets, buildings, museums, bars, restaurants, stores, historic sites and places with unusual or panoramic views. Another Travel Guide Rīga is the key to Latvia’s capital. It presents a true insider’s Riga as experienced by artists, architects, entrepreneurs, journalists, photographers and other impromptu tour guides who love their city and will happily share its secrets with you. Discover Rīga in all its diversity – from its classic attractions to the lesser-known gems on its outskirts and the well-hidden spots only those in the know can show you. Nordea Riga marathon is in the guide as well.
Another Travel Guide Rīga takes a creatively visual approach that’s radically different from that of typical travel guides. The photographs – commissioned especially for the travel guide – capture the unique essence of each location or object listed, offering a glimpse of the experiences and sensations that make a visit to Rīga unforgettable. The guide includes detailed maps of the city and its environs and tear-off picture postcards.
The team which put together Another Travel Guide Riga is made up of true insiders – artists, architects, businesspeople, journalists and photographers who love the town the live in. It’s a guide to the best hotels, museums, cultural facilities, cafés, restaurants, shops and local habits, but it’s also a book of unusual artistic value. It unveils a great city with a different and creative visual approach.
The new guide is available on www.amazon.co.uk and on airBaltic flights. The book is available off-line in various shops, hotels and restaurants around Riga and sold in Vilnius, Tallinn and Helsinki as well.
