RIGA CULTURAL AGENDA
RIGA THIS WEEK RECOMMENDS
International The owners and inspirers of International, came up with
a simple but rather appealing idea. At the restaurant we
always want to try out foreign specials, but money and
portion wise we usually can afford only one/two meals.
That’s why the International crew has created a special
cross-culture menu with small sample portions (Ls 1.50-
4.50), to choose and mix, four, five or ten specific world
cuisine traditionals. For example order: Beef Wellington
/Australia/+ Sturgeon /Russia/+ Dorada /France/+ Mini
burger with game meat /USA/ + Cheese cake. Charming
residential centre location, tram/park view. Also international
cocktails at the bar!
Park Spa This residential style Spa made in eco-Scandinavian style faces the park greens and offers total relaxation for your body and soul. Head and neck, face massage, back massage, chocolate massage, relaxing four hand synchronized massage, aromatic massage, Thai massage, hot stone massage and many more. (See also Sports & Relaxation: Water Relaxation.)
Latvian Photography Museum (Latvijas Fotografijas muzejs) The collection contains photographs,
from those developed by
the primitive techniques of the 19th
century to modern ones: transparencies,
negatives, photographic equipment,
documents of archival value,
books and magazines. The permanent
exhibition illustrates the growth
and development of photography in
Latvia from 1839 to 1941.
