Keizarkresls un keizarskats

Reviewed By 992m_rab - Riga, Latvia

In my oppinion this is the second best view in Sigulda (after the Paradīzes mountain). Of course - the best timw to see it is during the Golden Autumn, at the begginning of October.

Turaida Castle

Reviewed By 86frankiet - Belfast, United Kingdom

The €6 entry fee is worth it for the Castle alone but it also covers all the attractions in the Museum except the peasants exhibit. The castle is amazing with great views from the top of the main tower and lots to explore in the other towers. Well worth the visit and the fee.

This castle is a hidden gem! While there is not loads of information about the castle, the restored tower and wall are well worth seeing and climbing. As well as the fantastically restored castle the views across the valley are stunning.

Sculptural Group Parade of the Knights

Reviewed By C9847MXpeterw - Thorpe Market, United Kingdom

One thing that I like about travelling in the Baltics is their love of art - whether as statues, paintings or wierd and wonderful sculptures. They can be serious or just downright fun. These little knights fall into this latter group. They are fun, entertaining and amusing. Even on a rainy day, like I had, they helped to cheer things up. And rainy days need cheering up.....
