Riga Central Market: Outdoor Markets, Riga
  • Tip Rating:
  • Riga Central Market is located at Negu Street near the bank of Daugava River just within a stone's throw from the Central Bus Station in the heart of the city of Riga. It is the largest market in Baltic countries and Northern Europe and is also one of the largest outdoor markets in Europe!

    Riga Central Market was established in 1930 after moving into the old Zeppelin hangars which were no longer in use as depicted in our photo above. The five large semi-cylindrical shaped hangars are home to various sections of the markets dealing in grocery, dairy products and fresh fruits and vegetables to fresh meat, fish and chickens. Wide range of other consumer goods especially clothings, apparels and household utensils are on sale in the markets. Cigarettes, wines and liquors can be bought cheaply from Riga Central Market.

    Fresh meat, fruits and vegetables. Cigarettes are highly recommended if you smoke. Cigarette prices are among the cheapest in Europe! Wines and liquors are also sold cheaply in the markets.

    Cheaper than most cities in Europe.

    Ambar crafts - a nice option just for souvenirs...
  • Tip Rating:
  • Worked amber is sold at many souvenir and art shops in Riga and other cities, and, particularly during the tourist season, in squares and parks as well, mainly in the old town of Riga.

    Amber and line
    Amber is available everywhere and a very reasonable prices.

    Latvian souvenirs
    Apart from the ubiquitous Baltic amber, line clothes are typical handycraft products of Latvia. Their price is reasonable and some of the designs are fantastic.

    In the small souvenir stalls in the streets of Vecriga, you can find as well a lot of Russian Matriushkas.
