The Old and the New

Riga is full of contrasts, notwithstanding the architecture. The east side of the river where I live is filled with ArtNouveau architecture as well as the medieval remnants of Old Riga. In contrast, the west side of the river has several modern high rise office and apartments along with the National Library where I spent the afternoon.
