The extremely complicated national coats of arms of Latvia contains among many other symbols three stars. These stand for the regions Kurzeme in the west, Vidzeme in the centre and Latgale in the east.

- Cons:Riga became very touristy (unfortunately unavoidable)
- In a nutshell:Latvia should be visited as soon as possible by those who understand its charme

Great pages on Latvia, Lothar! Looks like we were there at the same time. Will be in touch, we may be in Austria in 2-3 weeks.
What an interesting location and great pics, Lothar !
Hi Lothar! It looks like you've been to Latvia also:-) Can't wait to see the page when it's done. Best wishes from Denmark!
