The views

Admire the stunning views of Riga's iconic church spires and the towering
368.5-meter TV tower, one of the tallest in Europe. Marvel at the National
Library of Latvia, an architectural gem symbolizing the Castle of Light. Gaze at
the scenic Daugava River promenade, with its five elegant bridges, Old Riga's
historic charm, and the Central Market, originally Zeppelin hangars, now alive
with vibrant activity and rich local culture.



The building

The observation deck is located in the historical building of the Latvian
Academy of Sciences, which is a symbol of the Soviet era. It was built in honor
of the Communist leader Stalin. The construction of the building began in 1951,
but it was completely finished only in 1961. The building is preserved almost
exactly as it was in 1961. If you look closer, you will see symbols of the
Soviet era - a sickle and hammer on the walls of the central facade.The building
is believed to be the first high-rise building in Latvia.

Combine with ghetto and food market

"Amazing views across Riga. Lift to 15th floor, then 2 sets of stairs. Great to
see all the places we'd visited in geographical context. Some information
displays, but basic. You go for the view - which is worth it!"

DevoWorks

"An intriguing monument from the Soviet Union. They call it Stalin's birthday
cake because it should have been opened on his 80th birthday. He passed away
before it ever came to that. It is a similar building in Warsaw that resembles
twins and was built by Stalin."




Helena

"The Latvia Academy of Sciences observation deck offers a mesmerising panoramic
view over whole Riga that stretches as far as the eye can see. From a modest
fee, you ascend effortlessly by elevator. It’s delightfully uncrowded, making
the experience even more serene. Highly recommended."

"Amazing views over Riga. The lift takes you to floor 15 and you have to walk to
floor 17. It’s very high up! There are information boards telling you about the
different landmarks which was helpful (in many languages). It was interesting to
just be inside such a huge Soviet building! Staff are very friendly."

The best panorama view of Riga

"Offers the best view of Riga. Open until 22 so the most amazing sunset is
possible! Bring some coffee and hang out for a while. The history of this
incredible building enhances the experience - be sure to find out!"

Tomás Fonseca

"Definitely the best place in Riga to glimpse the city from the top. It gives a
360 degrees view of the city and its surroundings and you can stay there as long
as you want. The facade of the building is astonishing and the place is very
close to the central market, so a must-do detour if you visit the market."
