2025 Markets

The Central Market can undoubtedly be called the most famous place in the Latvian capital. It is here where the latest news is discussed, rumors are born, and even future spouses meet, bumping into each other at a vegetable or fruit stand.

The trading "heart" of Riga came into existence back in 1930, eight years after the decision to build it was made. At that time, all experts without exception claimed that the market was the largest in the world and had no equivalents in other countries. The territory of the modern market has merged so seamlessly with the rest of the city that imagining Riga without its colorful pavilions and brick buildings with welcoming callers is simply impossible. Notably, the market is part of UNESCO's "World Heritage" and is protected by it.
