A genteel maze of a shopping arcade just off Riga’s Old Town, built between 1887 and 1900 by entrepreneur Kristaps Bergs. Its lanes hold boutiques, cafés and restaurants, a barbershop and quirky shops selling antique maps, French wine and local designers’ clothing. It’s a calm, stylish pocket of the city — come for a coffee, a browse, and summer-evening jazz in the courtyard.
Stay in the arcade itself at the four-star Hotel Bergs.
