Tourist information centres
run by the Latvian tourist board (
www.latviatravel.com
) are beginning to appear in major centres. The Kummerly & Frey 1:1,000,000
map
of the Baltic States includes Latvia, and has a basic street plan of Riga. If you're planning to travel extensively in Latvia it's worth investing in the 1:300,000 Euromap map of Latvia. Jana Seta, Elizabetes 83-85, Riga, is well-stocked with maps and guides, and also publishes its own excellent maps of the region. The Falk Plan of Riga includes enlarged city-centre and old-town sections and also shows public transport routes.
Riga in your Pocket
is an excellent English-language
listings
guide to the capital, with details on everything you could possibly need to know, and regular features on attractions elsewhere in the country. Other useful information
for tourists (each section contains more specific sub-sections): |
