The map
Riga lies on the right bank of the Daugava, a short distance before the river meets the Gulf of Riga. Founded in 1201, the Latvian capital keeps its medieval core largely intact: a compact tangle of narrow lanes, church spires and small squares pressed against the water. On a map the Old Town reads as a dense knot beside the wide, calm sweep of the river.
When the old fortifications were removed in the nineteenth century, their line became a city canal and a ring of boulevards and parks. Beyond it spreads a district of broad, regular streets where roughly a third of the central buildings are Art Nouveau, one of the largest such collections in Europe. Across the river, bridges lead to Ķīpsala island and the quieter left bank.
A Riga map poster shows the city in layers: the irregular medieval heart, the soft green belt of the canal, the grid of the nineteenth-century centre and the long lines of the bridges. It suits anyone who knows the walk from the Freedom Monument down to the river, or the view back across the water from the far bank.
The curving Pilsētas kanāls follows the line of the former ramparts, separating the Old Town from the boulevard ring and threading through parks along the way.
Several bridges, including the cable-stayed Vanšu Bridge and the Stone Bridge, span the wide Daugava and draw the strongest straight lines on the poster.
Just southeast of the Old Town, the Central Market fills former Zeppelin hangars, a row of long parallel halls near the river and the railway station.

Why Riga
Riga holds a particular place for people who grew up in Latvia and return each summer, and for visitors who spent a few days getting lost in the Old Town. Its map has enough detail to reward close looking, yet stays calm from across a room.
Add your own title and subtitle, perhaps the year you moved or a street you lived on, and edit the coordinates line. The design comes in five styles, Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint and Sand, as $9 HD files or a printed poster.
