You can now virtually visit the Baltic States of Estonia and Latvia using the Street View feature in Google Maps.
Lets start in Estonia with a peek into the capital of
Tallinn, a medieval city characterized by its cobbled streets and red roofs. Here’s a view the Town Hall Square.
Also in Tallinn you have the Toompea Castle, which is a historic site
built on top of the Toompea Hill and now houses the Parliament of
Estonia.
Moving south to Latvia, lets first visit the square of
Riga Dom Cathedral,
which is one of favourite places both for locals and city guests to
relax in an outdoor cafe, listen to live music and experience a true
atmosphere of medieval old town.
Also, take a look at the bridge over
river Gauja in
Sigulda.
Thanks to the picturesque valley, many newlyweds choose to cross the
bridge, symbolizing their wedding as two shores coming together. If you
ever happen to visit (at least on Street View), be sure that you will
get only the warmest welcomes from wedding guests.
There are a ton more sites to visit through Street View and we
hope this can inspire you to visit these two countries in the near
future! To learn more about Street View please visit
