There are houses of different eras in Riga.
In Riga, there are many houses with furnace heating that require regular maintenance and cleaning of chimneys. This is what the chimney sweeps, who until today have a lot of work in the Old Town, did. Meeting a chimney sweep is considered a sign of good luck.
A very interesting monument to the town's artisans - a bricklayer and a chimney sweep - appeared in the square on Murnieku Street. Chimney sweepers and masons have long enjoyed universal respect and honor.
Between the lively streets of Dzirnavu, Marijas and Elizabetes in Riga, the restored, quiet pedestrian quarter of the Berga Bazars shopping complex is comfortably located with modern boutiques, salons, cafes, restaurants, offices, bank branches, and a hotel. Berga bazaar is like a small town in a city with narrow streets, stone arches, glass windows and summer concerts.
Old buildings with luxuriously decorated facades in the architectural style of Riga Art Nouveau or Art Nouveau are located on Albert Street.
There is also a museum, the Riga Art Nouveau Center, where the interior of a Riga resident's apartment from the beginning of the 20th century has been restored.
Riga is different.
There are also many private old wooden residential houses, which, unfortunately, like some buildings of the Soviet era, look very, very tired, dilapidated and dilapidated.
The historical center of Riga is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List due to its medieval buildings, wooden architecture of the 19th century and Art Nouveau architecture, which in terms of quality and distribution has no equal in the world.
