Geographical location

Riga, the Capital of Latvia, the central and largest city of the Baltic States is located on the southern shores of the Baltic Sea at the mouth of the Daugava River. The city's crossroads location between Western Europe and huge Eastern markets is one of Riga's attractions for business activities. This favourable location and membership in the Hanseatic League of northern cities has promoted the rapid development of the city since its founding in 1201.
